Juan Gris was a Spanish painter born on 23 March 1887 in Madrid, Spain. Gris, discovering his interest and ability in art, abandoned school to focus on painting. He studied under José Moreno Carbonero in Madrid. In 1906, Gris moved to Paris, where he worked as an illustrator before his association with Picasso, and Braque shifted his attention to Cubism.
Despite the financial restrictions that the war years caused him, Gris continued to win acclaim among viewers and critics and held his first solo exhibition in 1919. He frequently painted until he suffered a lung illness. During this period, Gris participated in exhibitions that increased his reputation until he died on 11 May 1927, aged only 40.
What was Juan Gris Known For?
Following his association with Picasso, Braque, and Matisse, Gris worked similarly to his friends, using a restricted palette, linear grids, and geometric planes. However, his later works showcased a bold and broad palette and collage composition. Subsequently, Gris focused his art on depicting peasant figures with lush colors and textures.
Who was Juan Gris Influenced By?
Jose Carbonero, Georges Braque, and Pablo Picasso influenced Juan Gris’ artworks. Picasso and Gris both studied under Carbonero, who taught his students the basic rudiments of Cubism. However, Gris’ involvement with abstractions began when he moved to Paris and became friends with Braque, Matisse, and Picasso.
What Art Movement was Juan Gris Associated With?
Juan Gris was associated with the Cubism art movement. Specifically, Gris worked in Analytic and Synthetic Cubism techniques, which were differentiated only by the palette and geometric compositions.
