Cubism is an early-20th-century avant-garde art movement pioneered by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque, and later joined by Juan Gris, Jean Metzinger, Albert Gleizes, Robert Delaunay, Henri Le Fauconnier, and Fernand Léger, that revolutionized European painting and sculpture, and inspired related movements in music, literature and architecture.

The first organized group exhibition by Cubists took place at the Salon des Indépendants in Paris during the spring of 1911 in a room called ‘ Salle 41 ’; it included works by Jean Metzinger, Albert Gleizes, Fernand Léger, Robert Delaunay and Henri Le Fauconnier, yet no works by Picasso and Braque were exhibited.

It is difficult to apply to painters such as Jean Metzinger, Albert Gleizes, Robert Delaunay and Henri Le Fauconnier, whose fundamental differences from traditional Cubism compelled Kahnweiler to question their right to be called Cubists at all.

It was against this background of public anger that Jean Metzinger and Albert Gleizes wrote Du " Cubisme " ( published by Eugène Figuière in 1912, translated to English and Russian in 1913 ).

In the Armory show Jacques Villon exhibited seven important and large drypoints, his brother Marcel Duchamp shocked the American public with his painting Nude Descending a Staircase, No. 2 ( 1912 ) and Georges Braque, Pablo Picasso, Fernand Léger, Raymond Duchamp-Villon, Roger de La Fresnaye, Marie Laurencin, Albert Gleizes, and other cubist painters contributed examples of their cubist works.

De Stijl was also linked by Gino Severini to Cubist theory through the writings of Albert Gleizes.

Other group members included Albert Gleizes, Roger de La Fresnaye, Fernand Léger and Jean Metzinger.

Guggenheim's purchases continued with the works of Rudolf Bauer, Fernand Léger, Robert Delaunay, and great artists who were not of the non-objective school, such as Marc Chagall, Albert Gleizes, Pablo Picasso and László Moholy-Nagy.

Besides Stieglitz and Steichen, photographers such as Alvin Langdon Coburn, Jessie Tarbox Beals, painters of the Ashcan School like John Sloan, Everett Shinn and Ernest Lawson, as well as Paul Cornoyer and Childe Hassam, lithographer Joseph Pennell, illustrator John Edward Jackson as well the French Cubist Albert Gleizes all took the Flatiron as the subject of their work.

The term solid relates to the Cubist-influenced geometric structure, an insight prompted by the epigraph from Albert Gleizes and Jean Metzinger ’ s Du Cubisme ( 1912 ).

* Jean Metzinger and Albert Gleizes publish the first major treatise on Cubism, Du Cubisme.

Jean Metzinger and Albert Gleizes wrote the first major treatise on Cubism, Du " Cubisme " in 1912.

In 1906 Metzinger met Albert Gleizes at the Salon des Indépendants, and visited his studio in Courbevoie several day later.

While Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque are generally acknowledged as the founders of the twentieth-century movement that became known as Cubism, it was Jean Metzinger, together with Albert Gleizes, that created the first major treatise on the new art-form, Du " Cubisme ", in preparation for the Salon de la Section d ' Or held in October 2012.

Jean Metzinger and Albert Gleizes wrote with reference to non-Euclidean geometry in their 1912 manifesto, Du " Cubisme ".

Yet in Du " Cubisme " Jean Metzinger and Albert Gleizes articulate: " If we wished to relate the space of the painters to geometry, we should have to refer it to the non-Euclidian mathematicians ; we should have to study, at some length, certain of Riemann's theorems.

Though the concept of observing a subject from different points in space and time simultaneously ( multiple or mobile perspective ) developed by Metzinger and Gleizes was not derived directly from Albert Einstein's theory of relativity, it was certainly influenced in a similar way, through the work of Jules Henri Poincaré ( particularly Science and Hypothesis ), the French mathematician, theoretical physicist and philosopher of science, who made many fundamental contributions to algebraic topology, celestial mechanics, quantum theory and made an important step in the formulation of the theory of special relativity.

The common denominator between the special relativistic notions — the lack an absolute reference frame, metric transformations of the Lorenzian type, the relativity of simultaneity, the incorporation of the time dimension with three spatial dimensions — and the Cubist idea of mobile perspective ( observing the subject from several view-points simultaneously ) published by Jean Metzinger and Albert Gleizes was, in effect, a descendant from the work of Poincaré and others, at least from the theoretical standpoint.

From 1863, he was privatdozent in comparative anatomy and zoology ; from 1866 extraordinary professor ; and from 1873 to 1912 full professor, first holder of the chair in zoology and director of the zoological institute at Albert Ludwig University of Freiburg in Breisgau.

) The best known of these settings is the atonal song-cycle derived from twenty-one of the poems ( in Hartleben's translation ) by Arnold Schoenberg in 1912: Dreimal sieben Gedichte aus Albert Girauds Pierrot lunaire ( Thrice-Seven Poems from Albert Giraud's Pierrot lunaire — Schoenberg was numerologically superstitious ).

In his first public speech as leader at the Royal Albert Hall on 26 January 1912 he listed his three biggest concerns: an attack on the Liberal government, for failing to submit their ideas for Home Rule to a referendum ; tariff reform ; and the Conservative refusal to let the Ulster Unionists be " trampled upon " by an unfair Home Rule bill.

His elevation to the leadership of the Conservative Party allowed him a platform to voice his opinion to the public, and his speeches ( culminating with the January 1912 speech at the Royal Albert Hall ) were centred around Home Rule as much as they were around tariff reform.

Presumably the meetings stopped in 1912, when Frank went to Prague, to hold the chair of theoretical physics left vacant by Albert Einstein.

In 1912, at the age of twenty, he enrolled at the Albert Ludwigs University of Freiburg, but, at summer semester's end, returned to Berlin, then matriculated into the Humboldt University of Berlin, to continue studying philosophy.

Thereafter, members of the Royal Family would stay periodically at Rideau Hall, if not as governor general then as guests of the Crown, so that the palace played host to Prince Leopold ( later also Duke of Albany ) in 1880 ; Prince George ( later King George V ) in 1882, 1901, and 1908 ; Prince Arthur, Duke of Connaught, and Princess Louise, Duchess of Connaught ( later also the Duke and Duchess of Strathearn ), in 1890 and as the viceregal couple from 1906 to 1912 ; Princess Louise in 1900 ; Princess Patricia with her parents from 1906 to 1912 ; Prince Albert ( later King George VI ) in 1910 and 1913 ; Edward, Prince of Wales ( later King Edward VIII ), in 1919, 1923, 1924, and 1927 ; Prince George ( later also Duke of Kent ) in 1926 and 1927 ; and Prince Henry, Duke of Gloucester, in 1929.
