Основное содержание урока

Cubism was a popular painting style from around 1900s.

Pablo Picasso was one of the most famous cubist painters.

Cubism showed people a new way of seeing the world. The artists broke an object or a person into shapes.

They used such shapes as rectangles, cubes and cylinders.

Most of the paintings were dark because painters used dull colours like grey and brown.

The most popular painting style from 1920s to the 1960s was surrealism.
