Fragmented plans, multiple points of view and modernity · 20th century
Marcoussis, Gleizes, Juan Gris and Delaunay show how cubist fragmentation leads from the recognizable object to the abstract rhythm.
Cubism was born in Paris around 1907 when Georges Braque and Pablo Picasso abandoned the single perspective to decompose subjects into geometric planes. Painting no longer only seeks to reproduce an appearance: it confronts several points of view and affirms the surface of the canvas. Louis Marcoussis applies this logic to tables, instruments and portraits, which he fragments into interlocking facets. Albert Gleizes gives cubism a monumental and rhythmic scale. Juan Gris constructs his still lifes with almost architectural precision, where guitar, glass, newspaper and checkerboard remain identifiable despite their recomposition. Robert Delaunay extends this research towards orphism and colored abstraction: circular shapes and simultaneous contrasts gradually replace the object. This selection thus makes it possible to follow the transition from cubist analysis to the autonomy of rhythm and color. The "Cubist Abstraction" selection notably compares Cubist Composition - Louis Marcoussis and La Femme aux phlox - Albert Gleizes. His reading favors figures.
Cubism does not destroy reality: it dismantles it to show that an object can be seen, understood and reconstructed in several ways at the same time.
