Kubismus / Cubism Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages über Kubismus / Cubism:

The surrealists, and the modern movement in painting as a whole, seemed to offer a key to the strange postwar world with its threat of nuclear war. The dislocations and ambiguities, in cubism and abstract art as well as the surrealists, reminded me of my childhood in Shanghai. J. G. Ballard

Cubism is still the most important art movement for the same reason that John D. is still the most important Rockefeller.

Brad Holland

Cubism was an attack on the perspective that had been known and used for 500 years. It was the first big, big change. It confused people: they said, 'Things don't look like that!'

David Hockney

I think music has gone through a period of something very severe, rather radical, rather the way painting did with cubism.

Harrison Birtwistle

Raising a child is a little like Picasso's work; in the beginning he did very conventional representational things. Cubism came after he had the rules down pat.

Anna Quindlen

The surrealists, and the modern movement in painting as a whole, seemed to offer a key to the strange postwar world with its threat of nuclear war. The dislocations and ambiguities, in cubism and abstract art as well as the surrealists, reminded me of my childhood in Shanghai.
