From early still lifes through Cubism to paper cutouts, the artist's works spanned the Golden Age of modern art.
MUSEUM TODAY
THE MOST comprehensive exhibition ever held of the work of the French master Henri Matisse (1869-1954) comprises more than 400 pieces that illustrate the artist's exceptional range and depth. The exhibition offers the opportunity for a reassessment of his career and the critical role his work plays in the history of 20th-century art. Matisse is revealed fully not only as a painter of scenes of primal beauty, but as one whose art rests on a foundation of extraordinary visual intelligence and rigorous discipline.
