Henri Matisse revolutionized his art in his later years by abandoning painting completely to devote himself to paper cutting, a medium he had initially used as a technical tool. This change was not surprising, as many great artists develop new styles towards the end of their careers. Matisse found in paper cutting a form of expression as spontaneous as drawing, but conceptually closer to sculpture, releasing imagined forms from colored matter. His mature cutouts, despite their ethereal appearance, were tangible objects that incorporated the physical control of sculpture into pictorial art. Cutting through color as if he were sculpting, Matisse created works of outstanding quality that tied together the threads of his artistic life into a unique and economical synthesis. Published in 1978.
