In terms of methodology, I went to Moma for site visit in order to find out the history and theory of Cubism and its intersection with design practice. In Moma, there were the original pieces of artwork during Cubism, such as Georges Braque’s Man with a Guitar, Pablo Picasso’s Musicians with Masks, and Broadway Boogie Woogie’s Piet Mondrian. There were also sculptures of Picasso, Guitrars. By looking at some actual artworks from Cubist’s artists, I could feel the atmosphere and the overall style of Cubism. It was a different experience to see the artwork around me from looking at their work online. From Moma, I could find qualitative data by observing the artwork with my subjective point of view. For the quantitative data, I will find out the statistics of time period for designers who took Cubism as their inspiration and how Cubism could blend into the designer’s style during the time. Furthermore, I will go to Metropolitan Museum to see if there are some objects or fashion which are inspired by the characteristics of Cubism.
