(after) Henri Matisse Abstract Prints
French
Henri Matisse was born on December 31, 1869, in Le Cateau-Cambrésis, France. At 22, he had given up studying law in Paris to pursue painting. He had briefly studied art at the Académie Julian and Ecole des Beaux-Arts with Gustave Moreau. At 32, Matisse exhibited at the Salon des Indépendants in Paris, where he met Maurice de Vlaminck, who with Matisse would eventually lead the Fauve art movement.
Matisse's work was included in the 1913 Armory Show in New York, and throughout the 1910s and into the 1920s, his work began to find collectors around the world. Throughout the 1920s and 1930s, he divided his time between Paris and southern France, producing paintings, sculpture, lithographs, and etchings.
Like many avant-garde artists in Paris, Matisse was receptive to a broad range of influences, particularly 'primitive' art, Near Eastern decorative art, African masks and sculpture, impressionist color, cubism, and the paintings of Paul Cezanne. The artist's images of the human face and figure -rendered in fluid lines and flat fields of color- typify these influences. Matisse argued for the prominence of instinct in art production, believing that an artist should not have complete control over color and form.
He died on November 3, 1954, in Nice.to

Questions About (after) Henri Matisse Abstract Prints
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 22, 2024Henri Matisse was famous for his work as a draftsman, sculptor, printmaker and painter. He is especially well known for his use of color. Although classically trained at the Académie Julian in Paris, he quickly abandoned traditional techniques and genres to pioneer a style all his own, marked by quick gestural strokes and fluid contours. Along with fellow painter André Derain, Matisse was the leading proponent of Fauvism, a movement whose name is derived from the French word for "wild beast." Marked by vibrant hues, Fauvist paintings like Matisse's famous 1906 composition Le bonheur de vivre use wild, active brushstrokes and a palette unconstrained by nature. Shop an assortment of Henri Matisse art on 1stDibs.

- Was Matisse an Impressionist?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertMay 3, 2024No, Matisse was not an Impressionist.

David Brooker Fine ArtMay 13, 2021If it's an original Matisse painting it would cost many millions of dollars. Even the simple sketches are worth hundreds of thousands and are highly collected. His pencil drawings are the most affordable of his originals and are priced in the tens of thousands to the hundreds of thousands depending on the importance of the piece.- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Matisse originally used cut-outs to plot his paintings, but as he aged he found it more difficult to paint and turned to cut-outs as his primary form of art.
