MATISSE, IN SEARCH OF TRUE PAINTING

Through his long career, Henri Matisse continually expanded the boundaries of his art. By repeating images in pairs, trios and series, he conducted an ongoing dialogue with his earlier works in order to, as he put it, "push further and deeper into true paintings." In this fresh approach to a much studied artist, prominent scholars from the United States and Europe examine more than sixty works in concise chapters that focus on this aspect of Matisse's working process.
