Acrylic and newspaper collage
©1999 Charlene Brown
I put together this collage after experiencing an earthquake in Athens
in September 1999. It has been fitted into Chapter
3: Are artists better able to visualize problems and solutions? of the book
outline I posted on November 4, accompanied by the following text.
As analytic Cubism (the process of fragmenting and
abstracting artwork to give it a multiple perspective) progressed, Picasso and
Braque gradually shifted to synthetic Cubism. Although still using all of the
principles of Cubism, they then started making collages and assemblages. These
new pieces further enhanced the idea of presentation, instead of
representation, and the fourth dimension, time.
