  1. Cubism was a new movement in art that revolutionized European painting and sculpture. Its emergence in France led to new movements in music and literature.
  2. George Braque developed Cubic art with Pablo Picasso, and his paintings 'Violence and Candlestick' and 'Women with a Guitar' give abstract reality. Objects look broken up, as the artist depicts the subject from multi-dimensional perspective.
  3. Cubic art originated in the works of Paul Cezanne who treated the forms of nature as if they were cones, spheres and cylinders.
  4. The Cubists were experimenters. They disintegrated the subject and depicted a new vision of reality in broken form. The evolution of Czech Cubism has to be understood in this perspective.
