Marvelous Matisse Henri-Émile-Benoît Matisse is one of the most influential artists of the twentieth century. His stylistic innovations — along with those of Pablo Picasso — altered the course of modern art and impacted several generations of younger painters. Although known primarily as a painter, Matisse was also an accomplished printmaker. It’s that aspect of his work that will be on display at the Cornell Fine Arts Museum from Jan. 4-March 16. The exhibit, Matisse as Printmaker: Works from the Pierre and Tana Matisse Foundation,was organized by the American Federation of Arts and the Pierre and Tana Matisse Foundation. It loosely follows the chronology of Matisse’s career, from his earliest print in 1900 to his last in 1951. Examples of every printmaking technique used by Matisse — etchings, monotypes, lithographs, linocuts, aquatints, drypoints, woodcuts, and color prints — are included. Shown is Maria-Jose in a Yellow Dress (III) from 1950. The museum is located on the campus of Rollins College, and admission is free throughout 2014, courtesy of Bessemer Trust. 1000 Holt Ave., 407-647-2526. cfam.rollins.edu.
