Part III- African Art and Music

Africanart

African Art- These paintings are similar in my opinion because it has women posing and looking powerful.  They also have some of the same body language, posture, and the way their face looks.

PabloPicasso-artPablo Picasso- Picasso was influenced by his father’s artwork in his early years. Paul Cezanne’s paintings inspired Picasso to experiment with perspectives and begin Cubism with Georges Braque. For most of his life he found his own influences: his surroundings, myths, etc. . He also found making African masks entertaining. Picasso’s African Period was the period when Pablo Picasso painted in a style which was strongly influenced by African sculpture. This period, which followed his Blue Period and Rose Period, was also called the Negro Period or Black Period.
