Items related to Henri Matisse: A Retrospective
Dust-jacket reads: Published to accompany the retrospective exhibition of Henri Matisse's work at The Museum of Modern Art, New York - the first since the 1970 centenary in Paris - this is the most complete illustrated compendium of his art ever seen. Henri Matisse is renowned as a founder of modern painting: only Picasso has had a comparable influence. Now we are able to appreciate his full range. Henri Matisse: A Retrospective presents the atest results of scholarship and international co-operation. Key works from the Pushkin Museum, Moscow, the Hermitage Museum, St Petersburg, and many other collections worldwide combine with the Museum's own holdings to make this the definitive compilation of the great artist's oeuvre. Over 400 works are featured, including 275 paintings plus cut-outs, sculptures, drawings and prints. All Matisse's stylistic periods are represented: beginning with his first paintings and the breakthrough Fauvist pictures of 1905-07. A greater range of his celebrated 'decorative' and 'experimental' styles have been brought together than ever before, including paired works long separated. After covering his Nice pictures of the 1920s, the review culminates in a detailed presentation of the work of the 1930s and 1940s that gave rise to the paper cut-outs of his final years. John Elderfield has written a major re-evaluation of the artist and his development that will be essential for understanding the essence of his vision; and commentaries, reference illustrations and a detailed chronology accompany the splendid hues of the colour plates. Matisse's absolutely central importance in the evolution of modern art cannot be overstated. Henri Matisse: A Retrospective enables us to grasp, for the first time, the full magnitude of his achievement. With 592 illustrations - 320 in full colour.
