Item Number: 123862 Title: Cubisti Cubismo Author: Eyerman, Charlotte (ed) Price: Not Available ISBN: 9788857219035 Description: Milano: Skira, 2013. 33cm., pbk., 277pp. illus., most in color. Exhibition held at Complesso del Vittoriano, Roma. Italian text. Summary: The exhibition examines Cubism as a revolutionary international language, created in France between 1907 and 1914 by Pablo Picasso and George Braque and carried forward immediately after by Fernand Léger and Juan Gris. Spreading rapidly in the space of three years, Cubism won the enthusiasm of artists in Spain, Holland, Great Britain, Switzerland, Czechoslovakia, Russia, Mexico, Italy and the United States, becoming synonymous with modernity until the end of the First World War and beyond. As well as being modern artistic style not only the Cubists, but Cubism too, became also new paradigm of a changing world, rocked by rapid political and social upheavals. As a revolutionary language it was able to transform not only painting, but also architecture, literature, theatre, music, cinema, design, interiors and fashion. Consequently, in addition to works by known and unknown cubist artists, the exhibition also highlights the expression of Cubism in all its various facets.
