The Little Guignol - A Game of Cubes
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating and thought-provoking cartoon from 1917, showcasing the satirical take on the modern art movement of Cubism. The image presents an artist on stage, surrounded by an audience of elegantly dressed men and women, all adorned in squares and cubes, reflecting the distinctive style of Cubist art. The woman in the foreground, with her intricately patterned dress, embodies the Cubist aesthetic, her form fragmented and abstracted. In the background, a pantomime horse adds a touch of whimsy and absurdity to the scene. The horse, a traditional theatrical prop, is depicted as a series of cubes, further emphasizing the Cubist theme. The artist, with his paintbrush and palette, seems to be in the midst of creating a painting, suggesting that the entire scene is a performance or a tableau vivant. This cartoon, titled "The Little Guignol: A Game of Cubes," is a commentary on the Cubist movement and its influence on the art world. The title "Guignol" refers to a type of traditional French puppet theater, implying that the art world has become a stage for the performance of Cubist art. The use of a pantomime horse adds a sense of theatricality and exaggeration, highlighting the absurdity of the art movement and its departure from traditional representational art. Overall, this cartoon is a visually striking and intellectually engaging commentary on the Cubist movement and its impact on the art world.
