Cubism evolved in the calm before the storm of the First World War. It was primarily an intellectual pursuit that aimed to explore and expand the possibilities of representation. Its radical fragmentation of the human body and aggressively angular forms could also be seen to reflect a troubled and changing world. French sculptor Jacques Lipchitz was one of the first artists to apply the principles of Cubism in three dimensions.
