Les Peintres Cubistes: [Méditations Esthétiques] by Guillaume Apollinaire
"Les Peintres Cubistes: [Méditations Esthétiques]" by Guillaume Apollinaire is a book written between 1905 and 1912 and published in 1913. As the third major text on Cubism, it examines the movement's history, aesthetic principles, and development through essays and photographs of works by Picasso, Braque, Metzinger, and other pioneering artists. Apollinaire, a poet and self-taught art critic who witnessed Cubism's emergence firsthand, offers a highly original analysis of this revolutionary art form
that sought to express universal beauty humanized by light. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
