“The discovery of [Grebo] art coincided with the end of analytical Cubism. The period of investigation of the external world was over. The Cubist painters now meant to represent things by invented signs which could make them appear as a whole in the consciousness of the spectator, without his being able to identify the details of the sign with details of the objects ‘read.’”

—Daniel-Henry Kahnweiler
