Biography:
Albert Gleizes painted in the style of the Impressionists until he encountered Cubism in 1909. Three years later, he co-founded the Section d’Or group and also co-wrote the book Du Cubisme. Written with Metzinger’s help, it was the first book about the movement. His later art served as an attempt to unite medieval and modern art through Christian subject matter and Cubist form.
