      Cubism remains perhaps the single most important development in the history of twentieth-century art. It was the creation of just two artists - Georges Braque, a Frenchman, and Pablo Picasso, a Spaniard - between the years 1907 and 1914. Working alongside each other in Paris, then the artistic capital of the world, they invented a way of making pictures and sculptures that broke with conventions established 500 years earlier in the Renaissance. Their new art drew on the ruptures that had taken place in the previous decade (especially the work of Paul Cézanne) and also on their new ways of seeing non-Western art. Cubism was an idea of such power and flexibility that it spread across Europe and America with astonishing speed. Its enthusiasts include many great names in modern art such as Juan Gris, Fernand Léger and Marcel Duchamp. Cubism penetrated artistic activity far beyond painting and sculpture; it reinvigorated architecture, graphic design, music and poetry, and transformed the possibilities of photography and film. This exciting book covers the full range of its influence.

      Das Werk von Georges Braque (1882-1963), dem bedeutenden Wegbereiter der Moderne, ist viel komplexer und aufregender, als dies die bisherige kunstwissenschaftliche Literatur oft vermuten ließ: Die starke Betonung der Verbindung des Künstlers mit Picasso und die Gleichsetzung seines Werkes mit dem Kubismus haben seine Bedeutung nur unzureichend beschrieben, auch wenn seinen bahnbrechenden kubistischen Arbeiten eine außerordentliche Stellung eingeräumt werden muss. Der retrospektiv angelegte Band bietet eine profunde Neubewertung des gesamten OEuvres von Georges Braque. Mit über 80 Gemälden und zentralen druckgrafischen Arbeiten wird die Einzigartigkeit seines malerischen Abenteuers umfassend veranschaulicht: Braque im Umkreis der Fauves, Braque - der Methodische, Braque als Erfinder des Papier collé, Braques Anleihen bei der Dekorationsmalerei, in der er ausgebildet wurde, Braque als Meister des modernen Stilllebens und nicht zuletzt Braque - der 'lyrische Konstrukteur'.
