The undisputed master of color. The founder of modernity in painting. Unprecedented pictorial richness. The leader of Fauvism. Henri Matisse is all this, and so much more.
With its astonishing diversity and depth, Matisse’s work is one of the most prolific in the history of art. His art is based on color, in a quest for balance and purity of line.
Fascinated by music, dance and bodily movements, he sought to represent both anxiety and joy in his works, inventing a new artistic language in the process.
What were his influences? How did he revolutionize modern art? How did he initiate this undeniable revolution? Richly illustrated and documented, this is an unprecedented panorama of an essential work.
