Cubism is a form of art that has geometric shapes. It has many different angles, in a sense it is a way of showing realism in the art piece but in a different aspect. Others describe it as “depict the world as it is and not as it seems.”Many of Pablo Picasso's piece were in a cubism style. For example one of his pieces called “Still Life with liqueur Bottle”, in this piece you can see the many different shapes he painted to create one piece in fact in the piece and can see the liqueur bottle in the bottom left. Although there is a lot of shapes and piece going on this artwork, you don't lose sight of the main focus. This was created in Horta de San Joan, August 1909. Its an oil painting, that's is 81.6 x 65.4 cm big. There is not an specific background information of to why he painted this piece, but judging by the title I can assume that, he means when in doubt or when feeling low people tend to go for a drink and some how it keeps them going in other words they rely on drinking.
Pop Art is a movement that started in the 1950’s , it was a combination of representing popular culture, current news, and advertisement. Michelangelo Pistoletto born 1933 , created a piece called “Man with The Yellow Pants” in 1964 this piece was made out of Paper, oil, and pencil on polished stainless steel. Its size is 200.3 x 100 cm big. This piece was created to have anyone who see it , to be part of the art piece and no matter who and what is around. The piece seems to always change depending on what's going on around it.
