Henri Matisse: The Cut-Outs
Made of ink and paper.
Sourced from Artbook | D.A.P. - America's premiere source for gorgeous, playful, and forward-looking books on art, photography, fashion, design and popular culture.
Henri Matisse’s cut-outs, made from the 1940s until his death in 1954, are the peak of his idea of “construction by means of color.” This book, published for the most comprehensive cut-out exhibition to date, features 150 works and new research on his techniques, materials, and artistic process. Richly illustrated, it includes essays and archival photos that explore how these vibrant, decorative works evolved from studio experiments into finished art.
