Albert Gleizes (1881-1953) was a French artist, writer, and philosopher. In 1912, along with fellow artist, Jean Metzinger, he wrote the first major treatise on Cubism, called Du Cubisme. Gleizes was very involved within his art community and was a part of many groups, such as the Section d’Or and Der Sturm. Many of his theoretical writings were very popular in Germany and he was instrumental in exposing modern art to Americans during his time living in New York.
