Cubism, which emerged in the early 20th century, is a revolutionary artistic movement initiated by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque. Characterized by the deconstruction and simultaneous representation of forms, Cubism challenges traditional artistic conventions. Artists fragment objects into geometric shapes, creating multiple perspectives within a single work. The movement had a major impact on modern art, influencing Futurism, Dadaism, and Surrealism. Cubism marks a significant break from previous artistic styles, contributing to the evolution of artistic thought in the 20th century.
