Henri Matisse
Exhibition May – July 1980
"Matisse's line makes the paper on which it is inscribed larger, whiter. The drawing, as practiced for centuries in the West, digs into the support, creating a refuge from the assaults of space. For Matisse, space ceases to be the enemy: the pencil, the pen do not weigh on it, do not tear it, do not alter it. Matisse has limitless confidence in space. The image is no longer bound, on the defensive; it radiates."
