 Cubism (Movements in Modern Art (Cambridge, England)), by David Cottington
Cubism, perhaps the seminal movement for the arts of the twentieth century, was also one of the most complex. David Cottington describes how the artistic avant-garde, and Cubism within it, were formed by that turbulent and complex moment before the outbreak of the war in 1914. Analyzing paintings by Picasso, Braque, Robert and Sonia Delaunay and their associates, he traces their exploration of the convention of pictorial representation in the interest both of reflection on the experience of modernity, and of critical resistance to its seductions.
|  Juan Gris, by Christopher Green, Christian Derouet (Photographer), Karin Von Maur (Photographer)
This book is the first full-scale study of Juan Gris and Cubism to appear in English since D.H. Kahnweiler's renowned monograph. Gris was the first of the major Cubists to die. His career ended in 1927, while those of Picasso, Braque and Leger continued for many decades further. His historical significance as a leading Cubist whose work offers particularly revealing insights into the phenomenon of Cubism as a whole remains, however, undiminished.
|  Cubism and Culture (World of Art), by Mark Antliff, Patricia Leighten
Cubism initiated a pictorial revolution through its radical approach to image making, invention of the new media of collage and sculptural assemblage, and evolution toward pure abstraction. Scholarly yet accessible, Cubism and Culture reveals these profound formal innovations as integrally related to changes in French society. This comprehensive and fresh examination of Cubism in its wider context—social, cultural, political, scientific, and philosophical— covers the full range of art and artists from the movement's advent in 1908. 182 illustrations, 54 in color.
