Henri Matisse is a leading figure of modern art and one of the most significant colourists of all time. In a career spanning over half a century; Matisse made a large body of work encompassing drawing; painting; sculpture and ceramics. After 1948 he was prevented from painting by ill health but; although confined to bed; he produced a number of works known as the cut-outs. These were made by cutting or tearing shapes from painted paper.This concise book; written by Juliette Rizzi; Assistant Curator at Tate Modern; is the perfect introduction to the life and work of this artist and modern master.

Instead of actual big band charts that allow the performer to interpret the songs; it is a note for note transcription of Gregg Potters performances on the full band tracks. Still cool; just not what I was hoping for.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
