MATISSE, Henri

1869 Cambrésis – 1954 Nice. Post-Impressionism, Fauvism, Modernism

Matisse studied law and worked in a solicitor’s office in his home town. While recovering from an appendicectomy in 1890 he began to paint, moving to Paris in order to study art. Rejecting an academic training, he became a pupil of Moreau. In the Louvre he copied the works of Poussin and Chardin, painting their chiaroscuro manner. While staying in Brittany in 1896 he returned to Impressionist painting. In about 1900 he recognised the independent value of colour and began to analyse the works of Cézanne, van Gogh and Gauguin in order to find new synthesis.
While with Signac at Saint Tropez in 1904 he adopted this ainter’s pointillist manner. This he gradually abandoned, using longer brushstrokes which finally became areas of of colour divided by darker outlines. Towards 1910 he adopted intensy brilliant coloration and simplified forms, lines and colour contrasts to a high degree, creating images of pure joy, unhampered by decorative and ornamental effects. His late work lacked the serenity and ease which marked his former concern with perfection and harmony.
