Download or read book Matisse 50 Years of His Graphic Art written by William S Lieberman and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2000-05-30 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Henri Matisse, world famous as a painter, was equally at home in the demanding techniques of the various graphic media. Lithographs, etchings, monotypes and book illustrations, all carry his characteristic stamp: the fluid, rounded line, the mercurial blending of figures with their background. Here for the first time, are gathered his principal graphic works: miniature portraits of his friends and his family, the fine line of etching catching character and mood; early studies of nudes; large lithograph sheets of lush odalisques, the epitome of fauve depiction; white-line linoleum cuts designed by the artist to accompany, explain and heighten the words of some of his favorite books; and the electrifying slashes and surfaces of color that Matisse so thrillingly combined in his Jazz sequence. In his text to the reproductions, William S. Lieberman traces the progress of Matisse's works in the graphic medium.

Book excerpt: Henri Matisse is one of the leading figures of modern art. His unparalleled cut-outs are among the most significant of any artist's late works. When ill health first prevented Matisse from painting, he began to cut into painted paper with scissors as his primary technique to make maquettes for a number of commissions, from books and stained glass window designs to tapestries and ceramics. Taking the form of a 'studio diary', the catalogue re-examines the cut-outs in terms of the methods and materials that Matisse used, and looks at the tensions in the works between finish and process; and drawings and colour.

Then Henri started painting . . . and kept painting and dreaming and working at his craft until he'd become one of the most admired and famous artists in the world.

Download or read book From Shadow to Light written by Steven Brower and published by Fantagraphics Books. This book was released on 2010-10-06 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Shadow to Light: The Life and Art of Mort Meskin is a coffee table art book and critical biography of one of the twentieth century’s most influential comic book artists. Meskin’s career spanned both the Golden and Silver ages of comics, from the 1940s to the 1960s. His drawing, chiaroscuro technique, and storytelling are considered by connoisseurs of the form to be among the most sophisticated of his time. His passion for his artwork was equaled by his skill, and the quality of his overall oeuvre blurs the artificial distinction between high and low art. Yet he is known mostly among hard-core aficionados today, eclipsed by many of his peers, some of whom he profoundly influenced. Among Meskin’s fans and admirers are Jim Steranko, Joe Kubert, Alex Toth, Carmine Infantino, Steve Ditko, Jerry Robinson, and Jack Kirby. From Shadow to Light: The Life and Art of Mort Meskin will finally give this neglected artist the recognition he’s due.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A world of intense colour comes to mind when we first think of the art of Henri Matisse. Yet, as this book so aptly proves, Matisse's genius also conquered the graphic world of black on white. Here, in 91 prints, we follow his excitement in exploring the various printmaking media, and his delight in pursuing a wide range of themes. This selection consists of works printed in black. It begins with Matisse's first print, a self-portrait carefully constructed of drypoint lines, executed between 1900 and 1903, and it ends with the bold, aquatinted "masks" of 1951-52". -Page 6.
