This was a great lecture! Thank you, Kaelin. I will be returning to this takeout for another listen. There is so much great information included in this talk. I don't want to inadvertently miss any of it..
I loved the way comparisons were made by looking at different paintings in different galleries on different floors !This was most efficiently done through internet in Barnes Take Away. I knew of Braque and Picasso' duels so to speak but not really the Matisse /Picasso artistic connection. My sensabilities(sp?) are rocking and I am smiling. Thank You!!!
I like the comparisons between Picasso and Matisse. I felt that the sculpture, using your imagination, was also made using gourds, since they come in various shapes. Thanks. I really love the Barnes takeout. Look forward to it every day.
Very interesting to get the contrast with other pictures. I like the different styles personal to each presenter. It gives more alternative ways to appreciate the art. I look forward to coming back in person and exploring.
Very interesting to see how Matisse wrestled with both Cubism and with Picasso and how he (Matisse) was starting to move through Cubism and its constraints into new territory, in some ways dragging Picasso with him. Well done!
Oh my gosh, thank you so much. I have learned so much from the Barnes Takeout. Today I especially loved learning a bit about the progression of Matisse's art. I am so looking forward to a visit to the Barnes Foundation when travel becomes safe in the future.
@@kaelinjewell4962 the whole picture feels sort of cheeky and rebellious. It's weird to think it's contemporaneous withh such horrible war. Matisse was just over everything.
Your talk on those two bird sculptures was what hooked me on these Barnes Takeouts! so interesting to think of these two artists as rivals! Another very informative talk!
I really enjoy discussions of the styles of the artists and what visual issues they were exploring at the time of each work. It says so much more than simply looking at a painting removed from the context of its creation. I recently read “The Art of Rivalry” by Sebastian Smee and learned of the rivalry between Picasso and Matisse, as well as other famous artists from history. It’s a great read! Thank you for another fascinating Takeout!
Cubism is not my favorite type of art, yet this was an interesting view of both Cubism, Picasso, and Matisse's struggle with both of them. Thank you for another insightful look at the artist behind the painting, as well as the painting. These Takeouts are the highlight of my days!!
Thank you, I love the historical context around the painting. Also, the technique looks a bit like water color. It was interesting to hear that he was starting to paint with thinner layers.
Kaelin, Thank you for the takeout. I'd like to point out that the painting was cropped in the video and we weren't able to see the whole. Could you give us the whole image in future videos? Thank you!
Finally. You explained the differences or likeness of two artists and their relationship. Also going back and forth to different pictures in different rooms. I would like a few explanations on how and why the pictures and artworks were arranged in every room. Honestly this Matisse painting is a bit juvenile. I think you are over thinking these paintings. Lastly, if this Matisse painting is so important-- why is the tea pot in the middle of the painting. Why not raise the painting a few inches. But non the less this was a well thought out lecture!
Here's Tilly Losch's great little painting from 1943! The fact that she was a dancer and choreographer is not surprising, is it? collection.barnesfoundation.org/objects/5440/Creek/
We loved the presentation. Want to know more about the pic. You say there are 1,000 things to say, describe them. Please, eliminate the lazy "SO." It is annoying and detracts from the knowledge you could share. I also got the impression you didn't prepare enough. We are in this to learn and your lectures and those of the others will determine where we go when the pandemic is over. Take this more seriously and tell your friends and colleagues.
I agree with you, Mr. Duckman. I was distracted by the sing-song, California-girl style of speaking and overall amateurishness. Matisse deserves better. Camera movement was also very distracting.
Thank you for these 10-15-minute snippets of quiet contemplation.
😍😍 this is my one of my favorite paintings. Thank you for sharing this!

Thanks, Kaelin! I enjoyed hearing about the relationship between Matisse and Picasso and, even more so, about the progression of Matisse’s work.

That piece of angled frame on the left of the composition is intriguing. Almost like a visual rhyme.
Definitely! The way it juts and almost cuts into the picture space is so surprising.

why mention the names of some of the other artists but not all of them, especially the woman artist??
