Matisse: “For Me It’s Always New”

[@constancewalsh3646]

One of the best presentations of so many. Erudite, passionate, beautifully opinionated, in a soft, intelligent voice. A pleasure as well as an education. Thank you!

[@sherrierichard2848]

She brings such joy into giving us the depth and feeling of the artist. She actually hears the artists when she quotes them speaking about their art-how rare too is her humor and fondness for her field which is sometimes lacking in academia. Bravo!

[@loiswalsh3895]

Wow! This is one of the best analyses of Matisse from these periods I've seen.

[@howardhill3395]

Excellent presentation which has helped me to more deeply appreciate Matisse and his art. Thank you.

[@AkakaDomenjer]

Putting his art, made with simple materials, knowlede about techniques, his simplicity. Then put next to him all modern artists, with all materials etc Still can't reach him. He was purity and life joy. I always rest eyes looking at his art. Which I can at modern art.

An engaging and informative lecture with a fascinating set of slides. Thank you for making this available.

[@paulalovesart4545]

I so love learning from your lectures! It makes me want to come and visit your museum for sure one day. Thank you.

[@andrewwebb4635]

Fantastic lecture! Thank you so very much. I learnt a great deal yet it was very entertaining.

[@luiza-in1vi]

[@slipton6493]

Excellent talk! Gave me deeper understanding into the painter's work!

Wonderfull video - and indeed it is always new 🦋

[@RobCoghanable]

Met her at Princeton, she spoke eloquently on Agnes Martin, a lunchtime discourse made her late for the afternoon session, brava.

[@edwardferry8247]

Beautifully narrated, really interesting, thank you for this.

[@wimamesz9536]

very interesting and fine presentation

[@KawakebAstra]

great talk but volume too low listening on iPhone 😿

[@RobCoghanable]

The 1913 Matisse, evokes two questions, the overwhelming blue, Picasso? Secondly the almost ghostly visage?

[@maggietattersfield2859]

Wonderful! 🙏🏼 Thank you …

Graag vertaling in het NL daar leer ik meer van de Engelse taal vooral de zinopbouw ( het Engels zoals contrive Spirit Coordination enz is voor mij moeilijk te interpreteren door het samen met het NL begrijp ik het beter in welke context ik het moet plaatsen ( alvast mijn dank 🙏😘)

[@issues9828]

Picasso's composition was usually far more --- FAR more --- complex, rich, and satisfying.

[@NYCeesFinest]

Well beyond his time.

Does she do audiobook readings?

HOW YOU DOING MATISSE

[@joseffinat966]

Tis wat zo zo 😂

[@maluribeiro68]

I find this speaker so annoying! I wish she could hear herself… she thinks she’s so … I mean, I’m being a bit mean, I know that speakers have to show passion to entice listeners and even make a little joke here & there & be personal, but it’s sort of self-conscious or indulgent and “hum” annoying… But what I’m amazed! Perplexed! Is that she actually doesn’t actually say or think that Matisse is looking into vazante & Picasso for cubism itself, and that that portrait of Mme Matisse is not cubistic! The art critic may not have liked Matisse’s brighter colors, or style or persona, but it was certainly not for lack of cubism! When she’s describing the Res Studio, the walls and window-painting not matching, THAT IS CUBISM! Seeing from different perspectives! She thinks it comes later with the later paintings, and that it’s because of the people he’s painting… Noooo… he’s been looking at cezanne for as long or longer than Picasso and he’s IS doing cubism all throughout! Bizantina style, masks, geometricizing, etc is essential part of cubism! So Matisse was doing cubism all along! Picasso influenced Matisse & Braque, but Matisse influenced Picasso tremendously, and we see both trying what the other does, from Ronal or color work, to composition to primitivism elements etc! This is obvious! But if one doesn’t believe me, I guess she hasn’t read Matisse & Picasso … We wish she had gone mad because she’s so boring! And affected… and “hum”… conceited to be quite frank.

I do find most of these type of artist lectures are ' art speak' bollocks ! Great art comes from within. it borrows. it happens. great art is spontaneous. it isn't contrived like these lectures suggest . I like Matisse and its good to hear a lecture about him but please don't believe the observations stated in this lecture. Just watch and enjoy.

[@northernhemisphere4906]

you haven’t found where within comes from then yet.cheers on your way forward.

[@MM-ds4qv]

listen to her answers to questions at the end, she cannot even make sense of herself without a script

[@drendelous]

so many assumptions.. i think it is more than enough to read paintings by yourselves and read memoirs if they exist

[@mariofernandez2693]

MY ADMIRATION TO MRS. HANSON . HER KNOWLEDGE AND INSENSITIVITY TO COMPREHENSION OF ART , IS NOT EASY TO FIND. REGARDING THE " RED STUDIO ".. IS A PIECE THAT IS DIFICULT TO ANDERSTAND .." IN SPACES.., AND PERSPECTIVES. " RED STUDIO " , THE CORNER OF THE ROOM , ... WELL NOTICED POINT.

[@mariofernandez2693]

" SENSITIVITY " ...!!

[@sybil3716]

I was annoyed at that, too. 🤣 Had to stop watching, because I couldn't take it.

[@charissecoal]

Great lecturer but matisse was not the first artist to ever use the other end of the paintbrush to scratch details into a painted canvas. She blithers on about Matisse scratching away, as if he invented the technique 😂Rembrandt scratched small details into his paintings using the butt end of his brush (eg. hair), which seemed new but, again, even Rembrandt could have picked the technique up from somewhere else who knows

[@robertperez3461]

The work was quite interesting , the lecture might have been great without the embarrassed asides and attempts to deal with odalisques.

[@shekhawat5917]

what do you mean "embarrassed asides" i thought it was pretty good

[@lawrencealtaffer1813]

The lecturer's cute little asides detracted from an otherwise interesting lecture. Quelle domage.................

[@JOSEPH-vs2gc]

Honestly.. i'd rather look at Cezanne. Matisse is So awkwardly trying to be him after all... his portraits are mostly hideous and indecisive.

[@sonnycorbi1970]

I have empathy for the speaker - She had to contrive something - Matisse just paints no thought involved what so ever - I am a visual Artist - It’s Hand Spirit Coordination, Not Hand Eye - It’s hard for these museums, their speakers - It would have been better for her to speak of Matisses life, where he grew up a history of his in environment - what he was like in everyday life as the slides moved from one piece to another - I went back and shut her down and looked at his work -

the baby talk is so distracting omg
