EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intriguing artwork titled "Cubist Head" by Roger de La Fresnaye, created between 1915 and 1920. Measuring at a modest size of 14.6x11.4 cm, this pencil on paper drawing is housed in the esteemed Dallas Museum of Art in Texas, USA. La Fresnaye's mastery of cubism is evident in this thought-provoking piece. The artist skillfully dissects the subject's face into geometric shapes and fragmented lines, creating an abstract representation that challenges traditional notions of portraiture. The profile view allows us to appreciate the intricate details while emphasizing the three-dimensionality achieved through shading techniques. The inclusion of a pipe adds an element of intrigue to this composition. As smoke gently wafts from its bowl, it becomes clear that this study delves deeper than mere aesthetics; it invites contemplation on themes such as introspection or perhaps even addiction. Through his exploration of cubism, La Fresnaye pushes boundaries and redefines artistic conventions prevalent during his time. This modern approach to art continues to captivate viewers today with its innovative perspective on form and structure. Thanks to Dr. Joanne H. Stroud's generous gift, visitors can now admire this remarkable piece firsthand at the Dallas Museum of Art. Its presence serves as a testament to both La Fresnaye's artistic genius and our enduring fascination with unconventional interpretations of reality.
