Close Encounters Talks Series Arcs, Lines, and the Grid: Cubism and the Avant-garde

July 15, 2015, 7pm
Marvin Gelber Print & Drawing Study Centre, Art Gallery of Ontario

Kenneth Brummel, Assistant Curator of Modern Art, describes the marks and devices used by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque to create the language of analytical cubism (1909-1912). His talk will explore how other avant-garde artists built on this foundation to create individualized and innovative graphic styles. See prints and drawings from the AGO collection by a diverse group of artists, including Giacomo Balla, Amedeo Modigliani, Sonia Delaunay, and Gino Severini.
