Official catalogue for the exhibition "Cubism at the Centre Pompidou in Paris - A Revolution in Beauty: From Picasso and Braque to Delaunay and Chagall"

Cubism, created in Paris by two artists, Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque, at the beginning of the 20th century, brought about an unprecedented revolution in the history of Western art. Breaking away from the traditional spatial expression based on perspective and shading, Cubism's attempt to compose paintings using geometric shapes liberated painters from the common sense that had existed since the Renaissance, which regarded paintings as reproductions of reality. The new possibilities of visual expression that Cubism opened up shocked the young artists who gathered in Paris and quickly spread throughout the world, exerting a decisive influence on the diverse development of art that followed.
The official catalogue for this exhibition, the first major Cubism exhibition in Japan in 50 years, includes full-color coverage of approximately 140 exhibited works, including important works coming to Japan for the first time from the Pompidou Center in Paris. The extensive texts by Japanese and French researchers introduce the rich development and dynamism of Cubism, the true starting point of 20th century art.
