Room 16: Cut-Outs for a Warm Apartment
In the manner of Henri Matisse · French, 1869–1954 · Fauvism
Late in life, too ill to stand at an easel, Matisse cut painted paper with scissors and pinned it to the walls. He called it drawing with scissors. The joy in those rooms is portable. It fits any apartment.
