Ediciones el Viso/Fundaci n Colecci n Thyssen-Bornemisza, 2005

Carmen Thyssen-Bornemixza Collection Vol 1 & 2

Welcome Books, 2006

Dance Me to the End of Love
It's hard to believe Matisse did not collaborate on this book. The perfect symbiosis of the poetry and illustrations truly dance you through to the end. I bought this book as a gift. I'm keeping it.

Jazz

Henri Matisse

George Braziller, 1992

Possibly the most beautiful book of the 20th Century
Like the style of music for which it is named, Henri Matisse's "Jazz" moves in unexpected rhythms. His first major project in the unique cut-out medium, the book was originally published in a very limited edition. This 1985 edition brings a true work of art to a mass ...

The Cut-Outs of Henri Matisse

Henri Matisse

George Braziller, 1978

The Beauty of Simplicity
This relatively modest book is nevertheless the single best work to have appeared on Matisse's great cut-outs (with the exception of a 1977 National Gallery of Art catalogue), which he made from 1947-1954. John Elderfield's essay discusses the genesis of the cut-outs, ...

Matisse: Cut-Out Fun With Matisse (Adventures in Art)
Henri Matisse, Nina Hollein, ...

Prestel Publishing, 2003

Henri Matisse created some of his most exquisite works by cutting shapes out of paper. Delightfully entertaining and playfully inventive, his "paintings with scissors" are also a superb introduction to the most basic artistic concepts: color, line, and form. This engaging and accessible look at Matisse?s cut-outs, arguably the highlight of ...

Henri Matisse: Figure Color Space
Stefan Grohe, Peter Kropmanns, ...

Hatje Cantz Publishers, 2006

No other subject inspired Henri Matisse with such passion throughout his career as the female figure in interior settings. This is the most comprehensive publication to cover the topic of women in the work of the great regenerator of European painting, and in so doing, it covers the full spectrum of Matisse's creative evolution, from the small, ...

Matisse Picasso

Anne Baldassari, Elizabeth Cowling, ...

The Museum of Modern Art, New York, 2002

Whew!
Huge, very heavy book of almost 400 pages. Wonderful reproductions in color of their work, and, for the most part, easily understood prose. I think I learned a lot. I know I learned that I like Picasso better than Matisse, whom I found to be basically cold and ...

Henri Matisse : Paper Cut-Outs

Jack Cowart, Jack D. Flam, ...

St. Louis: Art Museum, 1977

If only this were in color!
From a scholarly point of view, this is the most important book ever written about Matisse's final and unique art form. A series of remarkable essays explore Matisse's career, his development as an artist, the circumstances which led to his creation of this unique ...

Pleasuring Painting: Matisse's Feminine Representations (Walter Neurath Memorial Lectures)

The Museum of Modern Art, New York, 2002

MODERN ART DESPITE MODERNISM
A superior book and fun to read! In this publication Robert Stoor, Senior Curator of MOMA's Department of Painting and Sculpture, gives an extraordinary account of some carefully chosen examples of the museum's art collection. After viewing the exhibit, I purchased ...

Matisse Cut-Paper Design Postcards

Henri Matisse

Dover Publications, 1989

Matisse cut paper design postcards
This is a great book if you are looking for samples of Matisse's cut paper work. The postcards have perforated edges and can be easily removed from the book. I put magnetic backgrounds on them to hang in my classroom so that children could see them when we focused on ...

A Century of Artists Books
Paul Gauguin, Riva Castleman, ...

The Museum of Modern Art, New York, 2002

This splendid celebration of the illustrated book as an art form begins with remarkable works produced in France by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec and Paul Gauguin at the end of the 19th century, and traces the international development of the modern illustrated book to the last decade of the 20th century. Major artists of the modern movement, among ...
