About Glass Of Beer and Playing Cards
"Glass Of Beer and Playing Cards" is one of the most popular paintings by the Spanish Cubist artist Juan Gris, organized according to a dominating pattern of vertical strips. Changes or transformations in the appearance of an object seem to occur in a number of directions: they follow the alternating rhythm of vertical bands but also the contrapuntal system of horizontal bands. Most Cubists painted using a monochromatic palette, but Gris went in a slightly different direction, preferring bold, varied colors. Gris developed a singular style within the Cubist movement, harmonizing colors rather than using monotones and creating pure, distinct forms, working often in collage. His style of Cubism became known as synthetic cubism. His use of color is evident in "Glass Of Beer and Playing Cards", painted in 1913.
