Orphism

 

a school of French painting that arose in the second decade of the 20th century. It was given its name in 1912 by Apollinaire. Orphism developed from cubism yet revealed a kinship to the modernist schools of futurism and expressionism. The movement’s founder and principal theorist was R. Delaunay. Other members included F. Kupka, F. Picabia, and M. Duchamp. The group sought to express the dynamics of movement and the musicality of rhythms by means of the interpenetration of primary colors and the intersection of curvilinear surfaces. The orphists very soon turned to abstractionism.
