About Matisse 关于马蒂斯
Henri Matisse was a French artist, known for his use of colour and his fluid and original draughtsmanship. He was a draughtsman, printmaker, and sculptor, but is known primarily as a painter. Matisse is commonly regarded, along with Picasso and Marcel Duchamp, as one of the three artists who helped to define the revolutionary developments in the plastic arts in the opening decades of the 20th century, responsible for significant developments in painting and sculpture. Although he was initially labelled a Fauve (wild beast), by the 1920s he was increasingly hailed as an upholder of the classical tradition in French painting. His mastery of the expressive language of colour and drawing, displayed in a body of work spanning over a half-century, won him recognition as a leading figure in modern art.Henri Matisse was born in December of 1869 in Le Cateau, France. He began painting during a convalescence from an operation, and in 1891 moved to Paris to study art. Matisse became an accomplished painter, sculptor and graphic designer, and one of the most influential artists of the 1900s.
He was the leader of the Fauves, a group of artists whose style emphasized intense color and vigorous brushstrokes. He believed the arrangement of colors was as important as a painting's subject matter to communicate meaning. He avoided detail, instead using bright color and strong lines to create a sense of movement. In 1905, works by Matisse and other Fauve painters were exhibited together. The bold forms and bright colors of these paintings shocked the Paris art world.
Matisse's work reflects a number of influences: the decorative quality of Near Eastern art, the stylized forms of the masks and sculpture of African, the bright colors of the French impressionists, and the simplified forms of French artist Paul Cezanne and the cubists.

马蒂斯是野兽派当之无愧的领袖人物。但"野兽派"时期只不过是马蒂斯艺术生涯中的一个短暂时期，马蒂斯的独特风格则主要是他在"野兽派"时期之后渐渐形成的。马蒂斯认为艺术有两种表现方法，一种是照原样摹写，一种是艺术地表现。他主张后者。他说："我所追求的，最重要的就是表现......我无法区别我对生活具有的感情和我表现感情的方法。"马蒂斯一生都在做着实验性探索，在色彩上追求一种单纯原始的稚气。他向东方艺术吸取了许多平面表现方法，画面富于装饰感。在学习东方艺术的过程中，他从原来追求动感、表现强烈、无拘无束的观点，渐渐发展成追求一种平衡、纯洁和宁静感。他后来自己评价自己的作品说：我的作品"好像一种抚慰，像一种稳定剂，或者像一把合适的安乐椅，可以消除他的疲劳"，马蒂斯认为无论是和谐的色彩或不和谐的色彩，都能产生动人的效果，他还认为，色彩的选择应以观察、感觉和各种经验为根本，"色彩的目的，是表达画家的需要，而不是看事物的需要。"1896至1904年间是艺术家寻找新方向时期。
