242086415Taschen. GF665 2009 2 hardcovers is slipcase very good condition A perfect facsimile of Jazz a 20th century masterpiece This two-volume edition includes a perfect facsimile of Matisse's seminal cut-out work: Jazz. At last readers can experience Jazz as if holding the 1947 original. The reputation of Henri Matisse 1869–1954 as the most important artist of the modern era is rivaled only by Picasso—who himself said ""All things considered there is only Matisse."" Towards the end of his monumental career as a painter sculptor and lithographer an elderly sickly Matisse was unable to stand and use a paintbrush. So at almost 80 years of age he developed a new technique: he drew shapes on colored paper cut them out and pasted them together. These gouaches decoupées gouache cut-outs represented a revolution in modern art yet their simplicity was dismissed by many critics as the folly of a senile old man. Later critics realized that Matisse had found a brilliant solution to the age-old conflict between line and color—one that would profoundly influence generations of artists to come. Printed in exactly the same colors using paper and inks similar to the 1947 edition the facsimile volume allows readers to experience Jazz in its original unbound form. Printed in 18 colors on a small offset press 4 pages at a time to obtain the highest fidelity to the original Printed on Old Mill in 190 g/m² from Italian paper mill Fedrigoni. This paper is of archival quality and has a felt-like softness much like handmade paper As with the original this reprint is unbound and folded in signatures of 4 pages. It is protected by a French folded jacket and a hard-backed cover The second volume provides a thorough historical context to Matisse's cut-outs tracing their genesis in his 1930 trip to Tahiti through to his final years in Nice. Also included are other pivotal works from his later career including his contributions to Verve magazine and his exquisite decoration of the Vence Chapel. Includes rare and historic photographs by Matisse taken in Tahiti as well as photos of Matisse by Henri Cartier-Bresson Brassaï and the filmmaker Murnau. The text is supplemented by quotations from Matisse Picasso E. Tériade the publisher of Jazz and Verve the poets Louis Aragon Henri Michaux and Pierre Reverdy and Matisse's son-in-law Georges Duthuit. Taschen hardcover
