02 Jun 11 - Dear members,

This group is about the pioneers of avant-garde Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque
and about the introducers of geometry, for instance: René Descartes. So we are talking both of abstract works.

If you want to know more about this game please read our frontpage.

Your leaders of the game wish you a creative stay. Enjoy!


LINES / GEOMETRY
The notion of line or straight line was introduced by the ancient mathematicians to represent straight objects with negligible width and depth. Lines are an idealization of such objects. Thus, until seventeenth century, lines were defined like this: "The line is the first species of quantity, which has only one dimension, namely length, without any width nor depth, and is nothing else than the flow or run of the point which will leave from its imaginary moving some vestige in length, exempt of any width. The straight line is that which is equally extended between its points"

Presently the most commonly used and relies to coordinate geometry introduced by René Descartes. It consists in defining a line in the Euclidean plane as the set of the points whose coordinates satisfy a given linear equation. More generally, a line in a Euclidean space of dimension n is the set of the points whose coordinates satisfy a given set of independent linear equations.In the maths he created the base for the analytical geometry, the bridge between algebra and geometry."

CUBISM / ABSTRACT
Was a 20th century avant-garde art movement, pioneered by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque, that revolutionized European painting and sculpture, and inspired related movements in music, literature and architecture. The first branch of cubism, known as Analytic Cubism, was both radical and influential as a short but highly significant art movement between 1907 and 1911 in France. In its second phase, Synthetic Cubism, the movement spread and remained vital until around 1919, when the Surrealist movement gained popularity.

In cubist artworks, objects are broken up, analyzed, and re-assembled in an abstracted form—instead of depicting objects from one viewpoint, the artist depicts the subject from a multitude of viewpoints to represent the subject in a greater context. Often the surfaces intersect at seemingly random angles, removing a coherent sense of depth. The background and object planes interpenetrate one another to create the shallow ambiguous space, one of cubism's distinct characteristics.
