Matisse, une seconde vie

Henri Matisse - A new life!
From march 16 to july 17 2005
Modern art
Matisse referred to his later work as his "second life". This exhibit focuses on that period. A period of work marked by a deep renewal and an extraordinary development of his art, characterized by a bursting of pure colors and abstraction that increasingly tends towards the sign and the arabesque. It brings together some one hundred works by the painter on a great variety of supports: oils on canvas, cut-out gouaches, drawings, models of illustrated books, tapestries.
