Adults ages 18+ / Registration required (Zoom)

The remarkable career of Henri Matisse, one of the most influential artists of the twentieth century, fundamentally altered the course of modern art. Spanning six and a half decades, his vast creative output encompassed painting, drawing, sculpture, graphic arts, and paper cutouts. On Thursday, August 29 at 10:30 AN, both on Zoom and in person, we will examine his extraordinary life and many of his important works. His friend and sometime rival Pablo Picasso once said, "All things considered, there is only Matisse." Led by Janet Mandel, a retired 32-year art history teacher, who now presents illustrated talks on a variety of art history topics at colleges & universities, libraries, museums, senior centers, and community centers. This program is presented with Tewksbury (MA) Public Library. Image: Pierrot's Funeral, from Jazz by Henri Matisse, 1947
