Between Picasso and Researcher: Introducing Cubistic Perspectives to the Social Sciences

The following article introduces the notions of Cubism and fragmental insights into Picassos' life as crucial material for the future of social sciences. In particular the use of subjectivity as the tool is underlined, by the notion of artifact construction and the interplay between being an artist and being a human with everyday life struggles. Cultural psychological perspectives intermingled with the awareness of the fluid and dynamic sense of material reality are used to underline where and how social sciences can improve their cultivation while respecting reality in its whole interconnectivity. In particular the notions between linearity and curvature in the context of Picasso's perspective and art expressions of women are explored and used to understand the instability of generalization.
