Modern Art For The Paper Store April, 1999
Introduction Its been said that Matisse was no
more an abstract artist than Picasso. No abstract

especially the human body, and in particular the

had been to Delacroix's or Titian's. His paintings
vividly communicate a tension between what he
called the sign and the reality it pointed to. He
had learned about thi...
