| | HEMINGWAY'S PARIS: ARTISTS and ART: Georges Braque |
| | The French painter Georges Braque was one of the major painters of the twentieth century, whose partnership with Picasso from 1908-1914 generated Cubism in pre-World War I Paris. | | | Braque was the son of a house painter who ascended to the family trade but at the same time was studying, part-time, at the local art school. | | | Braque's contributions included the introduction of overlapping planes, the use of letters in composition, and, after Picasso's developed collage, Braque created papier colle. |

| | Braque was certainly at his peak when he painted this monumental piece mixing sawdust to oil painting on the canvas on which were defined geometrical planes and lines as well as signs with a human figure and a guitar. | | | The painting was then lent the following year for a Braque retrospective in the Museum of Modern Art in New York and was later exhibited in several places with the name of Lefèvre attached to it. | | | Several works of art and paintings impounded by the Germans were returned to him between 1945 and 1948, the year of his death, but there was no immediate trace of other important pieces missing from the collection. |

Suzuki's Essais sur le Bouddhisme Zen until shortly after the war.) Braque's replies to interviewers suggest that he found Zen a confirmation rather than a cause of deeply held attitudes. |

| | Often seen as merely supplementing the project so loudly engaged by Picasso, Braque was in fact a crucial thinker of the modern aesthetics that influenced the work of Picasso and others. | | | Braque rapidly took as his own this style that seemed to privilege arbitrariness and violent display. | | | Without much energy to paint or sculpt, Braque began recording the main aphorisms he thought of when he was painting. |

| | Although French painter Georges Braque (1882-1963) was highly respected and financially successful during his lifetime, his individuality and inventiveness have often been overshadowed by the even greater genius of Picasso, his collaborator in the development of cubism. | | | While Picasso moved off in other directions, Braque, using the still life as his major theme, continued to develop and refine cubism for the rest of his career. | | | In her succinct and illuminating text, Wilkin (Stuart Davis) traces Braque's career, beginning with his fauve period and his interest in Cezanne. |
