Cubism (Art Revolutions)

Imagine a portrait with too many noses or a landscape without a horizon. Why paint a violin in disjointed pieces or a wobbling Eiffel Tower? The Cubists looked at the world from new angles and challenged the art of the past. Cubism was a revolution in shape and form--but how and why did it happen?

This book lifts the lid on the world of Cubism. From inspiration to creation, Art Revolutions--Cubism tells you all you need to know about the leading works and figures of this puzzling modern art movement.
