Was Georges Braque a Surrealist?
1 Answer

No, Georges Braque was not a Surrealist. Influenced by Henri Matisse, Braque's early works display the bright colors and emotional symbolism common to Fauvist art. Later in his career, the French artist worked primarily in Cubism alongside his contemporary Pablo Picasso. Shop a selection of Georges Braque art on 1stDibs.

By Georges Braque
Located in PARIS, FR
This sublime poster was made by Georges Braque 🇫🇷 (1882-1963) for his 1961 exhibition at the Galliera Museum (Fashion Museum of the City of Paris).
The Salon des Peintres témoins de leur temps is a show that was held every year between 1951 and 1983, first at the Museum of Modern Art of the city of Paris and then in the Palais Galliera.
