Juan Gris :
Landscape and Houses at Ceret, 1913

Oil on canvas

Further description in the alt text 👇
The year 1913 was a pivotal one in the development of Gris’ art. It was at this time that he began to enrich the colour and forms of his paintings, progressing from analytical to synthetic Cubism. Moving away from the chromatic austerity of early Cubism, his paintings demonstrate a new interest in strong, vibrant colour, with pronounced tonal contrasts, as well as a new emphasis on modelling and texture. His trip to Céret in the summer of 1913 was the first time Gris left Paris since his arrival there in 1906, and it may have been due to this change and to the picturesque character of the town nestled in the mountains, that the artist discovered this new direction in his painting. Dominated by primary colours mixed with green and purple, the composition of Paysage et maisons à Céret is broken into geometric forms. Moving away from the pronounced vertical emphasis of his previous works, Gris introduced here intersecting diagonal lines, subverting the sense of depth and perspective, and underlining the flatness of the painting’s surface. The sharp angles and pronounced square and triangular forms are counter-balanced by the irregular shapes of the row of trees in the foreground, echoed by what appears like their shadow in the upper part of the composition. In the following months, Gris further explored this technique in works such as Le Fumeur (fig. 4) as well as a number of still-lifes, a genre which accounts for the majority of his artistic output during this period. The present work therefore represents a rare example of a pure landscape in Gris’ work, as well as an important milestone in the development of synthetic Cubism.

El cubismo no es una manera
sino una estética
y hasta un estado de espíritu
Por lo tanto está ligado a las manifestaciones del pensamiento contemporáneo 💔

Hailed as “the perfect painter” by avant-garde writer Gertrude Stein, Juan Gris developed his signature approach to Cubism beginning in 1911. Using classic café subject matter — such as the newspaper, seltzer bottle, and glass seen here — Gris made subtle adjustments to the conventions of picture making that render ordinary objects both familiar and newly intriguing. For example, in The Checkerboard (1915) and its bird’s-eye view of a tabletop, a cunning reorganization of pictorial space places objects that should have volume into a single compressed plane. With a nod to play, Gris shows us a fragmented checkerboard, an emblem of the strategy and gamesmanship at the center of his art.
