what is cubist figurative art?

Answer 1

Cubist figurative art

A 20th century artistic style that defied the traditionally naturalistic style of figurative depiction in painting and sculpture. The term was first coined by the art critique Vauxcelles, who described it as a geometric simplification of natural shapes and images. This simplification freed the artist from the usual use of perspective and anatomical accuracy; the tonal range could be less compressed, the representation of natural textures could be emitted and the surface of the canvas remained flat. Use of light and shading also changed as these artists refused to employ the gently defused Renaissance light that skimmed evenly across the canvas. Unlike the abstract artists of the period, the goal was not to create an image without distinct form or visibility, but to find a new way to represent images figuratively and realistically.
