Braque Cameo
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Faerna, Jose Maria / Curotto, Alberto / Braque, Georges, PUBLISHER: ABRAMS, French painter Georges Braque () was one of the great artistic pioneers of the 20th century. Together with fellow artist and intimate friend Pablo Picasso, Braque is considered a founding father of Cubism, a term first used to describe the fragmented, "cubelike" forms found in many of his most innovative works. Some of Braque's more inventive techniques included mixing pigment with sand and metal filings, and creating compositions of pasted paper collage, known as papier colles. Braque offers more than 70 full-color illustrations of the artist's works, encompassing all phases of his artistic maturity and placing him at the forefront of the early 20th-century art scene.
