Henri Matisse: Second Life
Rediscovering the Master Through a New Lens
Henri Matisse, the celebrated French artist known for his vibrant, expressive use of color, left an indelible mark on the world of art. Now, in Henri Matisse: Second Life, we embark on a captivating journey that shines a fresh light on the latter years of his illustrious career.
A Unique Perspective: The Power of Cutouts
As Matisse entered his later years, his health declined, and he was confined to a wheelchair. However, far from dampening his creative spirit, this physical limitation became a catalyst for artistic rebirth. Matisse turned to a new medium: cutouts.
With childlike wonder, he meticulously cut colored paper into shapes and forms, creating vibrant, abstract compositions. These cutouts, once seen as a playful departure from his earlier works, are now recognized as a significant chapter in his artistic evolution.
