George Kubler

George Kubler was an art historian and theorist best known for his work on the understanding of art and its development over time. He emphasized the importance of context in interpreting art, suggesting that artworks are not just isolated objects but are deeply connected to cultural, historical, and social factors. In his influential book, "The Shape of Time," Kubler argued that art should be viewed within a broader timeline, allowing us to see patterns and influences across different periods. His ideas encourage us to appreciate the evolution of artistic styles and meanings throughout history.
