Le Bonheur de Vivre: The vital colors and shapes of a modernist master
The work of Henri Matisse (1869 1954) reflects an ongoing belief in the power of brilliant colors and simple forms. Though famed in particular for his paintings, Matisse also worked with drawing, sculpture, lithography, stained glass, and collage, developing his unique cutout medium when old age left him unable to stand and paint.
Matisse s subjects were often conventional: nudes, portraits, and figures in landscapes, Oriental scenes, and interior views, but in his handling of bold color and fluid draftsmanship, he secured his place as a 20thcentury master. It was Matisse s palette that particularly thrilled the modern imagination. With vivid blue, amethyst purple, eggyolk yellow, and many shades beyond he liberated his work from a meticulous representation of reality and sought instead a vital harmony, often referring to music as an inspiration or analogy for his work.
From vast patterned panels to simple and tender portraits, this book introduces the full reach and creativity of Matisse s career, spanning his early work within the Fauvism movement right through to his latteryear projects such as Jazz and the Chapelle du Rosaire in Vence.
