Transitions in cubist work



The above colour board shows transition in the colour palette of the artists (during cubism). In the initial stage more of dull colours were used and the colour palette of the artists was limited .While in the later stages, artists used a variety of bright colours.Also,I have used - black,grey,white to hi-light this gradual change in the colour palette. I have shown this gradual change in the colour palette by choosing 3 paintings from different transitional phases of cubism 1)Les Demoiselles d'Avignon 2)The Weeping Woman 3)Violin and checkerboard .So,I have extracted colours from these paintings and repsented in the form of a Colour Board.

                                              


In the material board I have focused on the two stages of cubism .In the initial stage,artists preferred to use oil on canvas . While on the other hand,during the later phase artists had started exploring other materials.Also,they started making collages (distortion)using a variety of 2D and 3D materials.I have divided my board into 2 vertical halves depicting the material culture of the two phases.(artists used random materials at random planes using distortion and abstraction )
