Orphism or Orphic Cubism

Do you know what Orphism is?

If your answer is "No" then you will know about it in a minute!

and if your is "Yes" then the answer it's the same as above.

Fool ya? 

Okay back to topic.

The history of art have been developing throughout the years and i will be covering Orphism as the main topic for today. How exciting!

Orphism is a like brother of Cubism but from another mother, of course. Their almost the same but Orphism is more focused on the abstraction and their bright colors. They are more concerned with it's expression, movement, dose of sensation. Orphism only dispense with recognizable subject matter, relies on the form and color to bring out the meaning of the drawing.

The movement was aimed to have infinitude of interrelated states of being. The Cubist is uses form and dynamics and the Orphist uses the same but with colors too. The Orphic metaphor represented the artist's power to create new structure's and color harmonies, to put it into a innovative creativity process that will combine them to form a sensuous experience.

What traits make them creative?

Orphism does not need to be in a full form like Cubism. They are more to their pure abstraction and their sensation of colors as well. They're using colors to reflects the expressions and emotions that is inside them, the movement of the drawing states of the being and when this two combine with each other it will bring out a sensuousness meaning.

What environmental condition existed?

In 1912, Orphism was perceived from Cubism to Abstract Art. How exciting!! and it was relaunched  with the use of color  and back then the term of Orphism was elusive when it first appears and it remains to some extent.

   

What was the process of creativity?

Personally, i think Robert Delaunay and his gang wanted to do more than just doing concrete Cubism. I mean like breaking it down and reassembling it, that's kinda boring if you keep doing it everyday. So, they decide to make it more abstract and put more color on it, so that it brings out a deeper meaning from it. Even after 1913 Robert Delaunay still keeps on painting eventhough is not literally Oprhism but it stilll remains in our history of art.
