Henri Matisse (1869–1954) ist als revolutionärer Maler und Erfinder der Papiers découpés berühmt. Seine plastischen Arbeiten standen lange Zeit im Schatten seines malerischen Werks. Dabei stellen die vier Bronzereliefs Rückenakt I–IV nicht nur sein plastisches Hauptwerk, sondern auch einen Meilenstein in der Skulptur der Moderne dar. Ausgehend von einer naturalistisch anmutenden Gestaltung abstrahierte Matisse seine Figuren immer stärker bis hin zu einer radikalen Stilisierung. Dabei hielt er die entscheidenden «Zustände» als eigenständige Plastiken fest und führt uns so seinen Schaffensprozess vor Augen. Dieser Prozess der Verwandlung findet Parallelen in seinem malerischen und zeichnerischen Werk.
Dieses englischsprachige Buch setzt diese Metamorphose und Rückkoppelung erstmals zueinander in Beziehung. Matisse‘ unterschiedliche lnspirationsquellen ― Aktfotografien, afrikanische und antike Vorbilder - sowie Fotografien, die den Künstler als Bildhauer zeigen, runden die Darstellung ab und präsentieren den französischen Meister von einer unbekannteren Seite.

Soft cover. Zustand: New. 1st Edition. Large-format softcover volume, measuring approximately 9" x 10.75", is new, still in shrinkwrap. 232 pages. "Henri Matisse (1869-1954) is revered worldwide as a revolutionary painter and draftsman and the creator of papiers découpés, the powerful collages that characterized his late work. For a long time, his paintings and drawings overshadowed his achievements as a sculptor. Yet his Back Series of four bas-reliefs depicting a nude woman, created between 1908 and 1930, is recognized as a milestone of modern sculpture. Starting with a seemingly naturalistic approach, his figures progressed through increasing degrees of abstraction that culminated in radical stylization. At the same time, he captured the key "states" as sculptures in their own right, laying bare the workings of his creative process. There are parallels with this process of transformation in his paintings and drawings. Published to accompany a major exhibition at Kunsthaus Zürich marking the 150th anniversary of the artist's birth, Matisse?Metamorphosis explores this process and its reciprocal effects and sheds new light on a lesser-known aspect of Matisse's oeuvre. Bringing together documents that reveal Matisse's diverse sources of inspiration for his sculptures, such as nude photographs and works by African and ancient artists, the book also includes many photographs of Matisse at work as sculptor, providing insight into his practice.".

Paperback. Zustand: New. Henri Matisse (1869-1954) is adored worldwide as a revolutionary painter and loved for his collages, or papiers découpés, the icons of his late work. His paintings and drawings for a long time overshadowed his achievements as a sculptor. Yet his Back Series, four bas-reliefs showing a nude, created between 1908 and 1930, are widely recognised as a milestone in modern sculpture. Starting out from the naturalistic depiction, Matisse gradually transformed it to reach a radically abstracted figure. Each of the four original plaster casts represents a decisive moment of this artistic process.This transformative process has parallels in Matisse's painting and drawing. Published in conjunction with a major exhibition at Kunsthaus Zürich marking the artist's 150th anniversary, this is the first book to explore the relation between metamorphosis and feedback in both main fields of the artist's work. Documents of his diverse sources of inspiration for his sculptures - photographs of nudes, examples from African and ancient art - as well as images featuring Matisse at work as sculptor, round out this volume. It is a welcome addition to any art library, highlighting the lesser known side of this modern master.Published to coincide with the exhibitions 'Matisse - Metamorphoses' at the Kunsthaus, Zürich between 30 August and 8 December 2019, and 'Musée Matisse', in Nice between 15 February and 15 May 2020.
