Cubism's Breakthrough and General Analysis
Subject:
Cubism is said to have its breakthrough with Picasso’s Les Demoiselles d' Avignon( pictured: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Les_Demoiselles_d%27Avignon.jpg ), in which several Parisian prostitutes are seen from different perspectives. Their faces seem to be devolving from left to right, getting darker and darker. The influence of African and Oceanic tribal masks are apparent; as we see in the woman inthe bottom right, who is also seen simultaneously from the front and the back. Even though this work is not quite as geometrically– inclined as some earlier cubist works, (Violin and Candlestick, 1910; pictured: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Violin_and_Candlestick.jpg ); the women in Avignon are displayed rather hard-edged nonetheless.

Tags:
Gustav Holst (1874-1934) Gustav Holst was an extremely talented and famous composer in England who lived in 1874 through to 1934. His family was originally Swedish, then they moved to Germany, and then on to England. Gustav's father, Adolph married Clara, a pianist student of his, who later died giving birth when Gustav was just 8. Gustav Holst was a touchy and depressed child. His eyes were weak, but no one thought he had to wear glasses. His chest was also weak, but no one cared much about his asthma. He had to rest while doing simple physical activities, such as climbing stairs. In his youth, Gustav hated practicing the violin, but enjoyed the piano, which he had began to practice as soon as he was tall enough.
