Cubism
Cubism which is an art movement started in France where then it became as an art movement during the 1907 and 1914. In the cubism art we can see the work of Pablo Picasso and also Georges Braque. Cubism is the most movement that we find in history of art that is modern art and also it is an influential movement. We also  can see  that  in the movement  of  cubism  we don’t see  only painters and sculptors  but we can see as well  musicians and even  poets. We also can  see  that  cubist art is also based  on  abstract art  and  also  on  shapes  such  as  geometric shape  as  in triangles  square and  more. In cubist art we also can see that some  paintings  are based  more  on nudity theme but have some  unique shapes  such as  the face  is  based  more  on  triangular  shape  like  the  sculptures  we see  in African  art. Also the colours in cubist art we see that some colours are solid.
