Artists of the 20th Century: Henri Matisse
Born in 1869 in France, Henri Matisse is regarded as one of the most influential figures in 20th century art. An accomplished painter, sculptor and graphic designer, he experimented with many different styles of painting from Impressionism to Abstraction, but is perhaps best known for his involvement with the Fauvist movement early in his career. His bold and provocative use of colour would continue until the end of his life which is examined in this excellent documentary.
