Person studied at the School of Fine Arts in Paris where he was successively the student of Cormon, Vallet, Humbert and Thirion. He sent his first works to the Salons Parisiens in 1903, then to the French Artists until 1910. In 1890, he met the painter Paul Signac and shared with him his taste for boats, navigation and ports. In the early 1900s, the two painters were established in the small fishing port of Saint-Tropez. From 1909, he exhibited works inspired by the theories of pointillism of his friend Signac at the Salon des Indépendants. The artist abandoned little by little the divisionist technique in contact with the artists Henri Manguin, Albert Marquet and Charles Camoin. He made numerous watercolors with soft and poetic tones. His views of Saint-Tropez and the shores of the Mediterranean sea combined observation and lightness of touch. In 1913, his works were exhibited at the Bernheim gallery. Very attached to the port of Saint-Tropez, he created the Museon Tropelen, which will later become the Museum of Saint Tropez, with the help of his artist friends Alphonse Stival, Carlos Reymond, André Turin. The project was approved in 1921. In 1922, the city of Toulon appointed him curator of the museum Tropézien which will become the Museum of the Annonciade after the prestigious donation Grammont and its transfer in the chapel of the port.

Some were outraged, others merely amused. At that time only a few of the critics were aware of the importance of the event. Even fewer critics realized that the special characteristics of these paintings would have a decisive influence on the future development of Gortain futur e twentieth century art.

  • Les Pensees De Pascal, Matisse
    Les Pensees de Pascal, Henri Matisse, 1924, 2010.37, G371 Questions: 1. Look carefully and describe what you see. 2. How does Matisse’s love affair with color play out here? 3. Matisse sought to achieve simplicity and balance in his paintings. What could be aspects of simplicity and balance in this piece? 4. How does Matisse seem to play with the contrasts between interior and exterior spaces? What other contrasts come to mind? 5. Matisse famously said, “Art should be devoid of troubling or depressing matter...a soothing, calming influence on the mind, something like a good armchair that provides relaxation from fatigue.” How could this painting be considered therapeutic? Explain. Main Points 1. Matisse regarded simplicity, balance, and serenity as the supreme achievement and message of French art. 2. Matisse’s art is important for its abstraction, spirituality, and subjectivity. 3. He recognized the importance of still-lifes in his own development. He copied paintings by Chardin and de Heem (1893) early on and reinterpreted de Heem in 1915. 4. He was searching for “what I believed to be exceptional in myself with means (colors) richer than in linear drawing, with which I brought forth what moved me in nature, through the empathy I created between the objects that surrounded me, around which I revolved and into which I succeeded in pouring my feelings of tenderness without risking to suffer from doing so as in life.” 5. Objects were not symbols or metaphors, literary references, not even important for their function. 6. Many of Matisse’s paintings include a window, allowing for depiction of both the interior of a room and the view of the exterior.

  • In Turn-Of-The-Century Paris, an Explosion of Brash New Art
    1 In Turn-of-the-Century Paris, An Explosion of Brash New Art Dubbed 'les Fauves' (the wild beasts) for their uninhibited use of color, these artists boldly rearranged the imagery of nature By Helen Dudar, Smithsonian, October, 1990 The scandal of the Parisian art world in 1905 was Room VII of the third annual Salon d'Automne in the Grand Palais, its walls throbbing with raw color. Color squeezed straight out of tubes; color assaulting the eye and senses; color that sometimes seemed to have been flung upon the canvas; color that dared to tint human flesh pea green and tree trunks a violent Andre Derain, The Turning Road, L’Estaque, 1906 red; color that not only refused to imitate nature but actually had been used to suggest form and depth. The signatures on the paintings bore the names of men some of whom, surviving notoriety, would soon be more or less famous. Henri Matisse, the oldest of them and the unlikely center of this radical new style, would flourish into his 85th year as one of the masters of our century. Andre Derain would, for a time, produce works of breathtaking originality and virtuosity. Albert Marquet and Henri Manguin, less than household names in our day, would be the best-sellers of the group because they turned out tamer work that was gentler to the untutored eye. Maurice de Vlaminck, a larger-than-life figure and a devout fabulist, would claim with some exaggeration that he was really the first to engage with the new style, and then, the first to abandon it.

Parmi la bonne douzaine réunie là, quelqu'un apparaissait déjà mûri et bien serein parmi ces explosions de jeunesse. Et pourtant Marquet n'était pas plus âgé que ses camarades de rencontre et de lutte. Au sein de cette promotion qui, près de soixante ans plus tard, éclatait encore en feu d'artifice, les douze toiles de Marquet montraient que le Bordelais avait déjà trouvé son «régime de'croisière», alors que bien d'autres n'en étaient qu'au «plein gaz» du décollage.

    PRESS RELEASE | N E W Y O R K | 22 APRIL 2013 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE FRESH TO THE MARKET WORKS LEAD CHRISTIE’S IMPRESSIONIST & MODERN ART WORKS ON PAPER AND DAY SALES Henri Manguin, Etude inversée, Nu sous les arbres, Villa Demière, oil on canvas, Estimate: $400,000-600,000 New York - Christie’s will present its Impressionist & Modern Art Works on Paper Sale and Day Sale on May 9 in New York. The sales are comprised of paintings, drawings, sculptures and works on paper from the leading Impressionist and Modern masters such as Alberto Giacometti, Paul Klee, Joan Miró, Henry Moore, Pablo Picasso, Egon Schiele and many more. Fresh to the market works from distinguished collections are offered throughout the two sales including highlights from the collections of Andy Williams, Mona Ackerman and an Important Private European Collection. Both sales will offer bidders the perfect opportunity to enter the market, or further strengthen their own collections. ORKS ON PAPER Executed in 1970, Femme is a large-scale and fully worked W composition executed when Joan Miró (1893-1983) was utilizing the joint influences of Abstract Expressionist American art and Japanese calligraphy in his own uniquely poetic, instinctive and gestural style of painting (pictured right; estimate: $400,000-600,000). Femme demonstrates how under these influences, Miró’s forms became more expansive while the poetic nature and integrity of Miró's pictorial vocabulary remained essentially the same. This bold work depicts the iconic figure of a woman rendered using smooth flowing calligraphic lines while the palette, reduced to the essentials of red, yellow, green and blue, augmented by black and white, reflects the reductive color vocabulary Miró had used since the 1940s.

    Henri Matisse Biography weary of this teacher wanting him to copy mostly only Bouguereauʼs works, so the following year Matisse left to spend his time copying the works of art that the Ecole des Beaux Arts made available for students. It was there he was noticed by the artist Gustave Moreau, who invited Matisse to attend his classes and thus arranged for his acceptance into the school. Moreauʼs students spent hours copying the masters in the Louvre, but he also encouraged them to draw from real life and did not insist that his students adopt his style. As a result, he was much admired and respected by them; Matisse stayed with him until Moreauʼs death in 1898. During the first ten years that he was a student and an aspiring artist, Matisseʼs father gave him a Henri Matisse was born on December 31, 1869 at modest allowance which he supplemented by Le Cateau-Cambresis, in the north of France.
