Henri Matisse, The Pierced Rock (1920)
Henri Matisse, Painter in the Olive Grove (1922)
Roberto Matta, Rocks (1940)
After exploring the BMA, there were specific pieces of art that captured my eye. Two works of Henri Matisse appealed to me because i like the soft, yet colorful nature of his art. He uses lights and darks to highlight his paintings, causing depth and a more 3-dimensional approach. As for the Roberto Matta piece, i thought this was really interesting how he created this art. Did he purposely paint it to be choppy? or did he smear paint, paint over that, then peel away the cover layer?
