"Composition (For Jazz)" is a 1915 Cubist painting by Albert Gleizes that embodies the innovative spirit of early 20th-century art. This work reflects Gleizes's engagement with Genre painting within the Cubist movement, emphasizing fragmented forms and multiple perspectives. Reproduced in newspapers of the time alongside photographs of Gleizes working, the piece highlights the intersection of artistic creation and modernity. Acquired by Solomon R. Guggenheim in 1938, it now resides in the Guggenheim Museum in New York, where it continues to exemplify Cubism’s revolutionary approach to painting.
