Cubism and Picasso

Grade 6

Pablo Picasso was one of the most influencial artists of the 20th century. He is most well known for creating an entirely new way of looking at the world. He called it CUBISM. Cubism used geometric shapes to view a three-dimensional object in a new way. Picasso used this style in paintings, sculptures, and collages.

In our Cubistic collage, we combined a contour drawing style with neutral colors and geometric shapes cut from various textures. We used contruction paper, tempera paint, wall paper and newspaper.
