  • Henri Matisse A Cut Above the Rest(2013 - 2014)
    Matisse was one of the most celebrated painters of the 20th century who, even in his own lifetime, enjoyed a level of popularity envied by other artists. But in 1941, after a near-fatal operation for cancer, he decided to give up painting and sought a new way of drawing in colour. Scissors replaced a paintbrush and with the unique skill of a tailor, he set about creating his now famous cut-outs, which have yet to be rivalled for their originality and daring.
    To coincide with a major Tate Modern exhibition in April, Alastair Sooke presents a moving and intimate portrait, with contributions from the Tate's Nicholas Serota, biographer Hilary Spurling and Jacqueline Duheme, who worked with Matisse in the late 1940s at this critical turning point in his career.

My mistake has been not pushing and explaining to people why they should love me as an artist enough. I'm working on another masterpiece at the moment called The Great TRUMPet Player. It consists of a portrait made with dry macaroni pasta on the back of the box which my new paper shredder arrived in. Look out for my documentary in 40 years!!!

    Henri Matisse had it sadly he lost it. Sorry to say it wasn't people taking 20 years to recognize the paper cutouts and their importance. It's like the Mona Lisa, it did not start out being what it is today, nor did Leonardo da Vinci's Salvator Mundi, for many years most people never heard of it till recently. The influence peddlers, Trend Setters, Tast Mackers, and Elitests, Who decide and then manipulate popularise and hype. Don't get me wrong there are many famous artworks and not-so-famous artworks out there deserving their place on the pedestals of the Art World but not because of the names of artists or Dollar signs and Media Hype. A few sayings come to mind #1"The Epirer has no close" Few are willing to stand p a say it. #2 Art is anything you can get away with" #3 The "BIGGEST factor " in the price of art often isn't quality or effort - it's "BRANDING" ! !

    • @romanowskiart
      @romanowskiart  3 роки тому

      Cut-Outs were artworks made from paper painted in gouache paint and then cut out with scissors. Matisse would choose the colours of paint and his studio assistants would paint the rolls of paper. They would then be weighted down so they dried flat. Matisse would then freehand cut shapes out of them and arrange them into compositions either on flat surfaces or later onto his studio walls. Smaller pieces he pined himself on a board on his lap, while larger wall pieces were put up with pins by his studio assistants with his instruction.

    He's important because he influenced later "pop art" which basically corporatized art. The very rich wanted simple easily digestible art they could sell to the masses that discouraged deeper thought and didn't challenge their authority. Art that sells products. That's why they made a talentless hack like Matisse a hero. Same with Warhol and crew.

      Raymond Fee sometimes its not about the technical difficulty, its about the successful composition of a picture, a junior high art student could paint it, but not compose, like beethoven's pathetique sonata, vs. bob dylan's mr tamborine man, a beginner musician could play one, bit not the other, it doesnt nessesarily mean the simpler of the two songs was "easy" to write--i hope that made a little sense, the simplicity is the essence of matisse's work, but he makes t look easier than it actually is, like roger federer
