Extroverted, Progressive, and Intelligent

9 Cubist, -9 Islamic, -3 Ukiyo-e, 5 Impressionist, 1 Abstract and -18 Renaissance!

Cubism was a 20th century avant-garde movement, pioneered by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque. It revolutionized European art and inspired changes in music and literature. The first branch of cubism, known as Analytic Cubism. It was both radical and influential as a short but highly significant art movement between 1908 and 1911 mainly in France. In its second phase, Synthetic Cubism, (using synthetic materials in the art) the movement spread and remained vital until around 1919.

People that chose Cubist paintings as their favorite art form tend to be very individualized people. They are more extroverted and less afraid of speaking their opinions then other people. They tend to be progressive and are very forward thinking. As the cubist painting is like looking into a shattered mirror where you can see different angles of the images, the people that prefer these paintings like looking at all angles of a problem. These people are intelligent and they are the transformers of our generation. They look beyond what is seen into what things could become. They are ready to leave the ideas of the past behind and look at what the future has to offer.

I'm actually not a fan of cubism at all. I'm just more a fan of modern art than any other. Probably the main this that appeals to me in art is color (which is why I love Kandinsky and the Blue Riders as well as Willem de Kooning) but I also love ideas (which is why Marcel Duchamp is possibly my favorite artist) and interesting shape (which is where the cubism comes into play -- if you give me three paintings and one is cubist and the other two are impressionist or renaissance or something similar, I'll choose the cubist painting as most interesting). Cubism itself, though (i. e. Picasso -- who I loathe -- and Braque -- who I don't loathe but just find dull) is too static and boring.

WEll, it was right about the extrovert, but you're sort of conservative and stupid. MISS.

Heh, I got the same result, and the extrovert part (as you know) is totally wrong.

OTOH, I do like cubism. And Picasso. But there was essentially no surrealism in the test, and that stuff's my favorite.

Ha. Ha. It is to laugh.

Yeah, it seemed like most of the examples of modern art were cubist.

It's kind of odd that the creator of the test would say that people who like cubism are automatically extroverted.
