How influential was C zanne on the development of cubism
Many people believe Cézanne was a “visionary ahead of his time” and this is a statement with which I would tend to agree Cézanne had very innovative style and it is clear that his use of perspective, colour and composition was very influential to 20th century art. Cézanne’s art was often misunderstood and also discredited by the public during most of his life. Cézanne grew out of Impressionism and began to challenge all the conventional values of painting in the 19th century. Because of his insistence on personal expression Pablo Picasso said this about the artist “My one and only master…Cézanne was like a father of us all” this has lead to Cézanne being recognized as the “father of modern art”.
