I visited the new “Matisse in the Studio” exhibit at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts (MFA) twice last week. I took a lot of photos (though certainly not of everything in the exhibit). Take a peek:
I’m going to save my commentary for tomorrow. Mom (who saw the exhibit independently of me) and I had a long chat on our Adventures in Arting Podcast about the exhibit — expectations, differing perspectives, and more! That will be up tomorrow, but I wanted to give you an opportunity to digest all these images before listening to the conversation.
Thanks for stopping by!
Thank you!!! I read about this when I was in Philadelphia two weeks ago. I knew I could not get there and am so grateful to you for this marvelous post. You do us such a grand favor when you do this. If you have NOT been to the Barnes in Philly you must get yourself there. You need a good half day on your own before or after taking a private tour with a curator on Tuesday when the museum is closed. You will not believe this place… More Matisse and REnoirs than in all of Paris. You have to do your homework – google the story, watch the movie and check the recent history to get a full appreciation for what you are seeing. These pictures can never be sold or loaned to any other museum so you will only see them there.

I’ve been meaning to write and thank you for all your marvelous posts of art exhibits I don’t have a chance of seeing. Matisse in particular makes me want to envelop myself in color and curves.

Thank you so much for posting your photos from the Matisse exhibit! I read about it and wished I could somehow get there! Wisconsin and Boston are not close! LOL! Matisse is one of my Art Heros and I feel like I got a peek over your shoulder as you saw it. Thanks again!
