How was the artist released from the distractions of the recognizable and representational?
Until the early 20th Century nature was the focus of the artist. His Landscapes, portraits, sculptures or still life paintings were offered to his patrons or public in diverse styles and techniques. However, no matter whom the artist was, primitive or Picasso, the subject was a representation of an image placed before him by nature. The artist’s aim became the reproduction of nature and the many approaches he used to demonstrate his artistic aptitude.
