Orphism (art)
Orphism or Orphic Cubism, a term coined by the French poetry, poet Guillaume Apollinaire in 1912, was an offshoot of Cubism that focused on pure abstraction and bright colors, influenced by Fauvism, the theoretical writings of Paul Signac, Charles Henry (librarian), Charles Henry and the dye chemist Michel Eugène Chevreul. This movement, perceived as key in the transition from Cubism to Abstract art, was pioneered by František Kupka, Robert Delaunay and Sonia Delaunay, who relaunched the use of color during the monochromatic phase of Cubism. The meaning of the term Orphism was elusive when it first appeared and remains to some extent vague. History The Orphists were rooted in Cubism but tended towards a pure lyrical abstraction.

Orphism aimed to vacate recognizable subject matter by concentrating exclusively on ''form'' ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
