About the Item
Edited by Karl Buchberg, Nicholas Cullinan, Jodi Hauptman, and Nicholas Serota.
Henri Matisse, one of the twentieth century's most significant and influential artists, displayed a remarkable inventiveness in the final decade of his career. Beginning in the late 1940s, he worked intensively with scissors and painted paper, cutting vividly coloured sheets into myriad shapes, from the botanical to the abstract, and arranging them in lively compositions. Matisse famously described his process as "drawing with scissors" and the works that resulted, both modestly scaled and wall size, came to be know as cut-outs.
This book published in conjunction with the most comprehensive exhibition ever devoted to this innovative body of work, presents a reconsideration of the cut-outs and is extensively illustrated to capture their vibrant, luminous presence. In addition to charting key moments in their emergence and subsequent development in the artist's practise, Henri Matisse: The Cut-Outs presents new research by curators and conservators on topics including the artist's materials and the methods, his environmental ambitions for the cut-out's, as well as the tensions they suggest between fine art and decoration, between drawing and colour. A Collection of archival photographs, some published here for the first time, offers a close look at the life of the cut-outs in Matisse's studios. They show how he surrounded himself with them, and they reveal the way paper forms exhibited texture and materiality, curling off the walls and migrating within and between compositions. The cut-outs were a continuation of the artist's longstanding engagement with colour and contour and were a radical rethinking of the physicality and temporality of the work of art marking the brilliant culmination of Matisse's career. 298 pages. 1580 grams.
