The word avant garde is a French term that means vanguard; but in the art world avant garde are people or works that are different from normal (e.g. Adele = Normal / Lady Gaga = Different) and their work is nontraditional,controversial, or unpleasant to look at.

Standing Female Nude poem actually derives from George Braque’s La Grande Nude portrait which belongs to the Cubist art movement which began in Paris around 1907. The Cubists used analytic system which requires to redefine the three parts of the portrait from several points of view, instead of using the single point of view. The moment is mentioned as ‘a new way of representing the world’ and divided into two phases as Synthetic(1913-20’s) and Analytic(1907-12) phase which is implied and mocked…

Behind every great artist is a muse. And the mythical painter Picasso had plenty of them. Throughout his life, the artist had two wives, six mistresses, and lots of lovers. Although his relationship with women was complicated, many of them served as the inspiration for the artist’s exceptionally prolific body of work. It can be said that Picasso’s style changed as often as he changed his companions. In this paper I want to explore the main differences between two of his main muses: Marie-Thérèse…

Mexico has had various recognizable art and artists. Many of Mexico’s art has to do with religion and heritage. Artists and from Mexico, such as Diego’ Rivera’s artwork “Flower Festival” c.1920’s, have become world known and have heavy influences o the modern artists today.

French painter, Paul Cezanne, was a very large influence on art and artists during and after his time. He went through many different styles of Expressionism and inspired many artists. One painting that he is especially known for was created later in his life. It is called The Large Bathers, and the title reflects the work of art, since it is of women who are bathing that look large. (“Bathers”, 2015) One can argue that Picasso and Matisse took this concept and made their own works that both…

As Americans, various individuals may believe that all Latin American countries are the same as they do not have experience in their separate cultures. Although this is untrue, the average person living there often feels that they are not unique.

One theme that is pervasive in Latin American literature is the lack of individuality. A lack of individuality…

According to Pablo Picasso’s “Art is a lie” artists reveal truth through lies in their artworks. I plan to prove that his assertion is correct by using the oil painting “The Broken Column”, a Mexican artwork created by artist Frida Kahlo, in 1944. It’s a modernism style painting, a style that developed around the twentieth century. Pablo Picasso’s view of art is a creative way to define how an artist reveals the truth of his/her paintings through lies . He also states that “Through art, we…
