What is one characteristic of Cubism?

some of the main features of cubism are the breaking down of an object into it's fundamental geometric shapes; the parts are then replaced in a single plane of (usually) a painting, so that there is a single surface and multiple geometric figures. This technique attempts to force the viewer to perceive the fundamental shape of the object, rather than just looking at the object and assigning it an identity based on memory of similar figures. If you think about it carefully, it is also a representation of fractals.


What is open and closed composition?

In open compositions shapes appear to be running off the edges and sides of the picture plane. This creates the sense that the work extends beyond the edges or boundaries of the picture which allows for more active eye movement


What did Georges Braque and Picasso do to objects?

They basically got together,and invented cubism where they replaced a simple picture with many different cones,cylinders and cubes.You could still see the picture if you looked closely,but as all of the shapes had pointed edges it made you want to look at the picture for longer and examine it.
