Cubism was the most influential artistic movement that emerged in
the twentieth century. The hallmarks of its style were stamped on
the art, design and architecture and its aesthetic principles
governed the representation of modernity across all the arts. Yet
just what cubism was, or stood for, at the time of its emergence is
still in dispute, while the explanations offered for its importance
for twentieth-century art, and its legacy for the present, are
bewildering in their variety. This fascinating book offers a way
beyond this confusion: a narrative of its beginnings, consolidation
and dissemination that takes into account not only what the style
and the movement signified at the time of its emergence but also
the principal writings through which cubism's significance for
modernism has been established. Visually stunning with over 100
illustrations, this is an essential work for all students and
teachers of modern art history. -- .
