        <h1 class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Juan Gris (1887-1927)</h1>
      </div>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">We Perform Perhaps the most famous of the Cubist artist besides Picasso is Juan Gris. Although he did not invent Cubism, Gris was just as important in this movement as Picasso and is known primarily for painting in the Cubist style.</p>
      <p  class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img src="uploads/artists/artists_a-k/gris/Gris_PortraitofJosetteGris1916.jpg" alt="art" width="auto" height="auto"></p>
      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">Portrait of Josette Gris, 1916</div>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Juan Gris was born Jose Victoriano Gonzalez-Perez in Madrid, Spain. He was originally trained in mechanical drawing at the Escuela de Artes y Manufacturas in Spain. In 1905, he also studied art under Jose Maria Carbonero. In his early days as an artist, Gris submitted sketches and paintings to magazines in a style completely different from Cubism that featured the Parisian elite in an Oriental style, as well as caricatures.</p>
      <p  class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img src="uploads/artists/artists_a-k/gris/Gris_Alegria1907.jpg" alt="art" width="auto" height="auto"></p>
      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">Alegria, 1907</div>
      <p  class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img src="uploads/artists/artists_a-k/gris/Gris_LeFrouFrou1910.jpg" alt="art" width="auto" height="auto"></p>
      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">Le Frou Frou, 1910</div>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">By 1910, Gris began to take his painting more seriously, and during this time he made friends with Georges Braque, another leading Cubist. He was also friends with Matisse and Modigliani, and admired and worked with Picasso, whose Cubist portrait he painted in 1912.</p>
      <p  class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img src="uploads/artists/artists_a-k/gris/Gris_PortraitofPicasso.jpg" alt="art" width="auto" height="auto"></p>
      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">Portrait of Picasso</div>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">It is said that this is one of the most important paintings from the early days of Cubism, and showed Gris’ great respect for Picasso. However, as art aficionado Gertrude Stein once commented, Gris was someone that Picasso would gladly have wiped off the map.</p>
      <p  class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img src="uploads/artists/artists_a-k/gris/Gris_HarlequinwithGuitar1919.jpg" alt="art" width="auto" height="auto"></p>
      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">Harlequin with Guitar, 1919</div>
      <p  class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img src="uploads/artists/artists_a-k/gris/Gris_Mandolino1919.jpg" alt="art" width="auto" height="auto"></p>
      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">Mandolino, 1919</div>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Gris painted in both analytic and synthetic Cubism in a style completely different from most other Cubists at the time. While Braque and Picasso were painting their compositions in one color, Gris harkened on inspiration from friend and fellow painter Matisse and made his Cubist paintings colorful and lively.</p>
      <p  class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img src="uploads/artists/artists_a-k/gris/Gris_LandscapeatCeret1913.jpg" alt="art" width="auto" height="auto"></p>
      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">Landscape at Ceret, 1913</div>
      <p  class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img src="uploads/artists/artists_a-k/gris/Gris_GlassCupandNewspaper1913.jpg" alt="art" width="auto" height="auto"></p>
      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">Glass, Cup and Newspaper, 1913</div>
      <p  class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img src="uploads/artists/artists_a-k/gris/Gris_OpenWindow1921.jpg" alt="art" width="auto" height="auto"></p>
      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">The Open Window, 1921</div>
      <p  class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img src="uploads/artists/artists_a-k/gris/Gris_GuitarandFruit1926.jpg" alt="art" width="auto" height="auto"></p>
      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">Guitar and Fruit, 1926</div>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Another way that Gris separated himself from other painters was by his use of papier colle, a type of collage art. This was a part of his synthetic experimentation with Cubsim, in which he would use labels, cards, and newspaper and magazine clippings and incorporate them into his compositions.</p>
      <p  class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img src="uploads/artists/artists_a-k/gris/Gris_BottleofAnisdelMono.jpg" alt="art" width="auto" height="auto"></p>
      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">The Botte of Anis del Mono</div>
      <p  class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img src="uploads/artists/artists_a-k/gris/Gris_ManAtTheCafe1914.jpg" alt="art" width="auto" height="auto"></p>
      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">The Man at the Café, 1914</div>
      <p  class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img src="uploads/artists/artists_a-k/gris/Gris_Breakfast1914.jpg" alt="art" width="auto" height="auto"></p>
      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">Breakfast, 1914</div>
      <p  class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img src="uploads/artists/artists_a-k/gris/Gris_Sunblind1914.jpg" alt="art" width="auto" height="auto"></p>
      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">The Sunblind, 1914</div>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">During his lifetime, Gris also created set designs for the Russian ballet. He died at the very young age of 40, his last known work begin “Woman with a Basket”.</p>
      <p  class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img src="uploads/artists/artists_a-k/gris/Gris_WomanwithaBasket.jpg" alt="art" width="auto" height="auto"></p>
      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">Woman with a Basket</div>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">As one can see, Gris was again moving towards a more sophisticated style of Cubism at the time of his death. Who knows what kind of movement could have been created if his life wasn’t tragically cut short?</p>
      <p  class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img src="uploads/artists/artists_a-k/gris/Gris_LaBaie1923.jpg" alt="art" width="auto" height="auto"></p>
      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">La Baie, 1923, sketch</div>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Gris’ synthetic Cubist styles are well-known, and most are likely in public collections, and some of his paintings fetch millions of dollars at auction. However, his earliest paintings and compositions created in his final days may still be somewhere, unauthenticated and otherwise unknown. Still wondering about your mysterious Cubist painting? It may be by Juan Gris. Contact us to find out.</p>
