Matisse by Gilles Nret
Painting with scissors is how Henri Matisse referred to his cut-outs. Produced towards the end of his life, when the artist was confined to a wheelchair, these brilliant bursts of color and form delight to this day as joyous celebrations of life, nature, and boundless creativity.
"A rare and outstanding symbiosis of book art and art book"
