Henri Matisse, 1869-1954


HENRI MATISSE, in his final years, too weak to stand at an easel, created paper-cut outs & collages, assembling in colored paper, scissoring out shapes, and collaging them into large & small pictures. These works, daringly brilliant, are the nearest he ever came to abstraction. They are the vision of an artist who has clarified movement & effect into a feeling.
Bravo!
