Robert Doisneau - George Braque a Varengeville

In establishing the principle that a work of art should be autonomous and not merely imitate nature, Cubism redefined art in the twentieth century. Braque's large compositions incorporated the Cubist aim of representing the world as seen from a number of different viewpoints.

The still life was his central preoccupation - here is a Braque that I saw at the Phillips Collection, in Washington. The title is Round Table, and it was made in 1927.

The National Gallery in Washington has some more works of Braque. This harbor, dated 1909, looks fabulous. Look also at LE JOUR - also at the National Gallery, where it's neighboring the sculptures of Brancusi.



And here is a drawing, Aria de Bach, he made it in 1913.
