(*) Henri Matisse was born in 1869 in Cateau-Cambresis, France. Like Pierre Bonnard, Matisse studied law. He began painting in 1890 and attended classes at the Académie Julian (1891-1892). He enrolled at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris in 1892 and joined Gustave Moreau’s studio. The landscapes and still lifes he painted at that period are of a classical style, though color played a dominant role. His first solo exhibition took place in 1904. The previous year, Matisse had co-founded the Salon d’Automne and was an integral part of the group “La cage aux fauves” in 1905. Matisse is the principal figurehead of Fauvism, a movement that caused a great stir; the artist applied bright, flat colors on the canvas that conveyed the intensity of his emotions, simplified the forms and outlined them with a black line. Trips to sunny countries (Corsica, southern France, Algeria, Spain, Tahiti…) confirmed his preference for color. Matisse painted landscapes, portraits, and still lifes. In 1907, the artist opened a painting school, the Matisse Academy, in his own Paris studio. In 1910 he published “Notes of a Painter,” in which he stated: “what I seek above all is expression.” The arabesque is among the motifs of this expression around 1910. He painted interiors, workshops, and nudes. His free treatment of color and form provoked a scandal at the Armory Show to which he contributed in 1913. After World War I, Matisse devoted himself to representing female figures, odalisques posing for him in kaleidoscopic color settings, with arabesque and floral motifs. He settled in Nice in 1921, where he would live for the rest of his life. Matisse created series, engraved, illustrated, produced frescoes, designed theater sets and costumes, bust models and female nudes, painted, and entered a new phase of experimentation from 1947: he cut and glued papers enhanced with wash-like painting; his work became more abstract. Matisse created the album “Jazz” in 1947 and another series of “Interiors” following the same scheme. Matisse died in Nice in 1954.
