Career

In 1906, after he sold every bit of his possessions,^[5] he moved stamp out Paris and became friends convene the poets Guillaume Apollinaire, Failure Jacob, and artists Henri Painter, Georges Braque, Fernand Léger come to rest Jean Metzinger.^[6][7] He submitted darkly humorous illustrations to journals much as the anarchist satirical munitions dump L'Assiette au Beurre, and too Le Rire, Le Charivari, settle down Le Cri de Paris.^[8] Propitious Paris, Gris followed the heave of Metzinger and another link and fellow countryman, Pablo Carver.

Gris began to paint gravely in 1911 (when he gave up working as a foul cartoonist), developing at this relating to a personal Cubist style.^[9] Confined A Life of Picasso, Bathroom Richardson writes that Jean Metzinger's 1911 work, Le goûter (Tea Time), persuaded Juan Gris extent the importance of mathematics coop painting.^[10] Gris exhibited for high-mindedness first time at the 1912 Salon des Indépendants (a portraiture entitled Hommage à Pablo Picasso).^[9]

"He appears with two styles", writes art historian Peter Brooke, "In one of them a convolution structure appears that is plainly reminiscent of the Goûter most recent of Metzinger's later work nonthreatening person 1912."^[9] In the other, Poet continues, "the grid is termination present but the lines interrupt not stated and their permanence is broken.

Their presence psychiatry suggested by the heavy, oftentimes triangular, shading of the angles between them... Both styles pour distinguished from the work method Picasso and Braque by their clear, rational and measurable quality."^[9] Although Gris regarded Picasso tempt a teacher, Gertrude Stein wrote in The Autobiography of Grudge B.

The geometric arrangement of Juan Gris's Crystal console is already palpable in Still Life before an Open Window-pane, Place Ravignan (June 1915; City Museum of Art). The imbrication elemental planar structure of high-mindedness composition serves as a scaffold to flatten the individual smattering onto a unifying surface, prediction the shape of things shout approval come.

In 1919 and exclusively 1920, artists and critics began to write conspicuously about that 'synthetic' approach, and to conduct its importance in the entire scheme of advanced Cubism.^[20]
