The Cubist Period was created from 1907-1914 and has been used throughout the 20th century ever since. This style is credited to Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque are said to be creators of the art movement. Cubist Artwork focuses on two dimensional plane, which throws away the old ideas of light and dark values to for shadow and realism. The movement also features the subject as fragmented objects with many sides being seen at same time, which is not how they would normally be seen in nature.
One of the modern cubists is David Hockney, who was born in 1937 and is a british painter, drawer, photographer and everything else in between. Some of his works include graphic art, portrait work, paintings, set and costume design and photo collages. In his photo collages, he shows multiple angles at the same time that should not be together which is one of the main features of the cubist movement. Hockney may have been inspired by the cubist period because many of his photo collages and paintings do not use shadows or light, which give it the appearance of a flat, two dimensional plane.
