Cubist VI

In many ways the cubist legacy of Cezanne, Picasso and Braque, so radical in its day, presents a perfect artistic prism for our times. Within the picture plane subjects are portrayed from multiple viewpoints, frequently reduced to fragmented cubes and shards of colour, endowed with an over-all sense of unity through the skill of the artist. Cubism has never been for the faint-hearted but it vibes well with the energy and awareness of the 21st century art aficionado.
