This week we continue our series on Fauvism with Henri Matisse’s “Notes of a Painter” published in La Grande Revue on the 25th of December 1908. Matisse was one of the 20th century’s most influential artists and his work remains a towering testament to the power of levity and beauty. Join us as we explore his pictorial essentialism and the tensions between nature and expression that he sought to resolve through his art.
Reliable links to Matisse’s works are difficult to find in the UK for copyright issues but we encourage you to seek them out in print.
Our intro music is by Aron Gyenge, whom we greatly thank.
