How To Write A Critque About Picasso's Cubism Self Portraid?

You should mention the elements and principles of art he used (look them up online (they include emphasis, line, movement, pattern, value, tone, etc etc) and state how effective he was in employing these principles/elements. (a critique is also about opinion, so a merited distaste or admiration is good, just keep it to a minimum.) You should also mention that he is the father of cubism and his work reflects a concept he developed (cubism refers to the breaking down of an image onto many parallel surfaces) Cubist works are supposed to look like you took an image (in this case of the artist) and glued it flat onto a cube, so that the image is flat against more than one side of the cube, then take each feature and make it sort of blocky (not sure how else to phrase that) and give more than one side of a feature. (ie a cubist nose can look like a side view of a nose connected to the front view of a nose side by side). Not sure if that helps any, but good luck.
