A pioneer of female cubism
Born in Santander in 1881, María Blanchard (whose real name is María Gutiérrez-Cueto) established herself in an artistic world dominated by men.
After studies in Madrid and then in Paris, she joined the Cubism circle, alongside Juan Gris, Léger, and Picasso.
While adopting the principles of cubist deconstruction, she adds a more poetic and emotional dimension, blending geometric forms and tenderness of gaze.
Her art explores solitude, motherhood, and human dignity, far from any intellectual coldness.
Emotion in structure
María Blanchard's works, such as The Communicant, Woman at the Piano, The Girl with the Hoop, or Cubist Still Life, stand out for their harmony between rigor and sensitivity.
Geometric lines and color blocks are intertwined with touches of softness and melancholy.
Under the cubist structure, a sincere human presence can always be guessed, an inner gaze filled with compassion.
Her palette — made up of ochres, blues, and greens — gives her paintings a lyrical and soothing intensity, while asserting her stylistic independence.
