introduction
The art movement, Cubism, played an important role in the early 20th century and was a vital stage in art history that followed Fauvism.
The word originated from the Paris art critic, Louis Vauxcelles, who reviewed that cubists’ artwork "had been reduced to cubes."
Cubism developed thanks to the French artist, Paul Cezanne, who believed in "nature by the cylinder, the sphere, the cone." At the same time, exceptional African sculptures were introduced to Western Europe. Cezanne’s idea and the African sculptures evoked artists to create a different style of art. They sought a fresh method to created artwork that was completely dissimilar to traditional art styles.
