Cubism was an artistic movement that originated in Paris in the early 20th century and was founded by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque. It revolutionized art by emphasizing the geometrical elements of objects in a way that distorted and fragmented them. The movement rejected traditional forms of art that aimed at representing reality accurately, and instead, focused on the subject’s underlying form. Cubism's influence on modern art can still be seen today, and it contributed greatly to the development of avant-garde styles such as Futurism, Surrealism, and Abstract Expressionism.
