Cabezas 2 by Julio González

Julio González, a close friend of Picasso and a pioneer of Cubist sculpture, uses these sketches to deconstruct the human face into a puzzle of sharp angles and shadows. The central figure sports a helmet-like shape and a grid-like mouth, looking less like a person and more like a mechanical warrior from a geometric dream. It’s a fascinating glimpse into the artist's brainstorming process, showing how he was busy breaking reality apart just to put it back together in a totally new way.
