Cubism as defined by Larry Treadwell of thecaveonline.com:

No single point of view; no continuity or simultaneity of image contour; all possible views of the subject are compressed into one synthesized view of top, sides, front, and back; picture becomes a multifaceted view of objects with angular, interlocking planes. Values: a new way of seeing; a view of the world as a mosaic of multiple relationships; reality as interaction.
