NEW YEAR'S EVE FROZEN FLIGHT

SHE DID NOT WANT TO GO

HE DID NOT WANT TO GO

FROZEN FLIGHT

SEEMED IMPOSSIBLE

BUT THEY FLEW

TO COME BACK HOME AGAIN

IN ANOTHER TIME.

AND UNTIL THEN

I WILL KEEP

OUR NEST

WARM

FOR THEM.

GEORGE ELIOT ONCE SAID TO ALL MEN AND WOMEN.AND/OR MENWOMEN:

THE DEAR OLD YEAR IS GONE,WITH ALL ITS WEBEN AND STREBEN.YET NOT GONE EITHER; FOR WHAT I HAVE SUFFERED AND ENJOYED IN IT  REMAINS TO ME AN EVERLASTING POSSESSION WHILE MY SOUL'S LIFE REMAINS.

HENRI MATISSE,THE FRENCH fauvist FIGURATIVE  ARTIST AND SCULPTOR

b.DECEMBER 31,1869 ,LE CATEAU,NORTHERN FRANCE

d.NOVEMBER 3,1954,CIMIEZ OF NIECE

MATISSE WAS INFLUENCED BY ROUAULT,CAMOUIN AND MARQUET BUT THEN STARTED HIS CONNECTIONS WITH IMPRESSIONISTS,AND WITH CEZANNE HAD A TENDENCY TOWARDS NEO-IMPRESSIONISTS.IF MATISSE IS NOT INFLUENCED BY PICASSO,THEN BOTH ARE UNDER INFLUENCE OF CEZANNE WHO REMAINS LIKE A FATHER FIGURE FOR MODERNISTS,AS PICASSO AKNOWLEDGED TOO.

MATISSE ALWAYS WAS ATTRACTED BY BEATIES OF YOUNG WOMEN,AND THEIR POSITIONS,EITHER FOR PAINTINGS,DRAWINGS OS HIS SCULPTURE WORKS.HE TOOK MOVEMENTS,BIRDS AND FLOWERS PREFERABLY REALISTIC RATHER THAN THROUGH IMAGINATION.THAT'S WHY MATISSE ALWAYS FARED WELL IN THE MARKET AND STILL DOES SO.

MATTISSE,THE REAL IS ALWAYS MATISSE THE MODERN,ALTHOUGH TRADITION IS ALWAYS PRESENT IN HIS PERFORMANCE.

SO MATISSE BRIDGES between the worlds of artists AND THAT'S THE SECRET OF HIS SURVIVAL.
