STYLES OF PAINTING

ANDREI RAREȘ ȘTEFAN


cl. A VIII-a C
CUBISM
Period: 1907 – 1914
Artist: Pablo Picasso, Georges Braque
Cubism was introduced in the early 1900s. The Cubists tried to create a new way of seeing the world through their art.
They chose basic, geometrical shapes such as cubes, cones and cylinders. They used dull colours such as browns or
greys to represent the way we see images in our mind’s eye rather than in reality.

IMPRESSIONISM

Period: 1867 – 1886


Artists: Pierre August Renoir, Edgar Degas, Claude Monet
Impressionism began in France in the mid 1800s. The Impressionists often painted outdoors as they wanted to show daylight.
Their works are characterized by short, quick brushstrokes of light colours such as blues, reds and purples. When viewed up
close, they can look messy and unreal. If you step back, the colours are blended by the eye and the subject becomes clear.

POST - IMPRESSIONISM

Period: 1880s – 1900


Artists: Paul Gauguin, Paul Cezanne, Vincent Van Gogh
Post-Impressionism was inspired by Impressionism and emphasizes colour. The artists in this group used thick brushstrokes
and lines to express their feelings in their paintings. They preferred bright, bold colours, especially yellows and purples.

SURREALISM

Period: 1920s – 1950


Artists: Salvador Dali, Rene Magritte
Surrealism started in France in the 1920s. Surrealists painted whatever they had dreamt about or imagined. Their paintings were
very unusual and often showed everyday objects in a strange or unexpected way. They preferred bright, primary colours such as
blues, reds and greens.
