7. Breaking Forms into Shapes & CUBISM RELATION?
• Photos are taken
from different
perspectives and at
slightly different
times
• The resulting work
has an affinity with
cubist perspective
and the way human
vision works.
8. CUBISM
•In the early 1900s, some artists became interested in African
and Native American art.
•The styles of those cultures inspired cubism.
Carafe, Jug, and Fruit Bowl, summer 1909, Pablo Picasso Violin and Palette, autumn 1909, Georges Braque
9. • Cubism began in France in 1907.
• Pablo Picasso and George Braque began painting figures
that were made up of cubes, spheres, cylinders, cones,
and other geometric shapes.
• The paintings looked like someone had cut them up and
glued them back together.

30. Tips for taking pictures:
•Choose one interesting subject to photograph (can be anything
and should be photographed during the day to get the best
possible lighting and colors).
31. • Standing in one area zoom your camera into the subject
and begin taking photos of different parts of the subject..
32. • Do not change your
location too much.
• Do not change the
camera’s zoom as this
will make the pieces
not fit together
properly.
33. • All 10+ pictures should be taken in one sitting as different
times of day will create different lighting.
Tips for taking pictures… Continued:

• Make sure to include the area around the subject as you may
choose to include this in your final artwork.
