Back from a mini tour of Yorkshire and Stockport and cheering for supporting act Indignation Meeting
Cubism, The Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art
Paintings which changed the way in which we look at the world on show in Edinburgh

THIS compact exhibition packs a potent aesthetic punch. All the principal Cubists are represented, with work that allows a full appreciation of the movement that shook and shaped 20th-century art in all its diverse strands.
With the world in rapid flux, Cubism burst onto the scene around the turn of the 20th century. It challenged established but tired post-Renaissance canons with canvases that communicated simultaneous viewing of the subject from different perspectives.
