Finissons l’année en beauté avec Henri Matisse ✨

Né le 31 décembre 1869, l’artiste a révolutionné le 20e siècle avec son approche singulière de la couleur !

Les « Nus bleus » sont peut-être l'aboutissement de la réflexion de Matisse sur la figure dans l'espace, et le point ultime de sa pratique de la sculpture. La figure ne se dessine plus, close, sur un espace abstrait, neutre et transparent, elle est désormais lieu d'échange et de circulation de la lumière, au même titre que les fenêtres si souvent présentes dans la peinture.

Let's end the year in style with Henri Matisse ✨

Born on December 31, 1869, he revolutionized the 20th century with his singular approach to color!

The "Nus bleus" (Blue Nudes) are perhaps the culmination of Matisse's thinking about the figure in space, and the ultimate point of his sculptural practice. The figure is no longer drawn, closed, on an abstract space, neutral and transparent, it is now a place of exchange and circulation of light, like the windows so often present in the painting.

Giuseppe Penone’s "The Listener" has been installed in Venice as part of the 17th Biennale Architettura of La Biennale di Venezia. This year’s exhibition brings together artists and architects to explore the question “How Will We Live Together?”

At just over twenty-nine feet high, Penone’s 2008 sculpture, comprising a bronze elm tree cradling a heavy stone, is partially submerged in the Venetian lagoon at the Arsenale site. The installation was commissioned by the Vuslat Foundation: http://on.gagosian.com/MxxGeKb
