Henri Matisse: A Master of the Modern Era. A Documentary for educational purposes.
This documentary a gift to all who recognize the greatness of Matisse.
I have watched endless documentaries during covid. This video thanks to the warm and sincere host has melted my heart.
This is why I love our century so much. Documentaries of master artists in high quality video format, delivered to your doorstep for free on RUclips.
For now
Brilliant!
This was amazing and the passion of the host is infectious. He did a fantastic job presenting Matisse. I loved this!
Color is a Paradise found and I love the ways Matisse make colors sing
Interesting how this documentary and many others conveniently forget to mention that Matisse went to Algeria to study African art which clearly heaviy influenced his work.
Without exposure to African Art, there would be no Modern Art. In fact, the story of Modern Art is the story of European artists response to African Art. African Art freed European artists from the Academic realism that dominated for centuries. It gave them permission to explore form in a way they had never done before.
Creative Thinker do you have any suggestions for books or references that touch on this? I never knew this and would love to learn more

I once owned a book that examined the development of modern art in great detail. Unfortunately it's been lost. Generally, if you study the development of Henri Matisse The Dance and Picasso's Les Damoiselle of Avignon as well as Picasso's collaboration with George Braque in the development of Cubism you'll understand the evolution of their work that led to the development of what is now known as Modern Art. Art Historians rarely want to give explicit credit to African Art as the seminal source material for Modern Art. They like the myth of pure European Artistic genius too much to shed light on the origins of modern art. You'll see references to "primitive" art as secondary influences. Anytime you see "primitive" substitute African Art and you'll have a better understanding. Primitive was a pejorative academics used to undermine non European works of art. In almost all cases the best source's for the truth will come from the Artists themselves. Picasso in particular is very explicit and direct in articulating the power of African Art and the profound influence it had on him and his work. There is a photo of Picasso with his African Art collection. He owned dozens of examples of masks, and figurative carvings. Picasso is one of the best source's. As well as Modigliani, Gauguin and Matisse.

Your question has motivated me to reexamine the development of Modern Art and refresh my understanding of African Art and its influence on European artists. I just downloaded a kindle book off Amazon entitled Pablo Picasso the African Period from 1906-1909. Its said to include 72 paintings that shows Picasso developing a new visual language in response to his encounter with African Art. Hopefully it'll include his thoughts as well.
And Japanese art.
Three in one here - 1 a great presenter 2 a great painter 3 a great programme. mmm we are probably blessed to have programmes like this . . .
I’m an artist bipolar. I yearn for that sense of calm. I cry hearing music but, not usually visual art. When you walked into the church I cried. I felt calm and happy and at peace looking at it.
In the last part when you were crying in the chapel says it all.My 2nd wife took me to see a Van Goth in NYC . I saw his pain and feeling in the paint and I cried. My Nana would say Nico you tough enough to cry ? I am ! Great art brings out great feeling ! thank you for this series.
Yeah Van Goth is great painter. Pretty similar to Van Gogh though...
I cried when I saw the Vincent Van Gogh retrospective at age 12-a religious experience for me and also Picasso at MoMA in 1980. Completely understand. Cried when I saw Frank Auerbach's paintings in London Calling at the Getty also.
Nick qfn sir, your comment brought me to tears. Beautifully said sir. Beautifully said.
Seeing Francis Bacon painting at the Scottish National Gallery was devastating. Amazing.
Absolutely beautiful and brilliant!!
Thank you from my heart!! 😊
The host does a wonderful job of bringing Henri Matisse and his art and talent to life. This production is the best, far superior to the pedantic ponderous and tedious lectures we get from academia. A pity that the film as loaded here has so many skips and glitches.
Remarkable documentary. In tears by the end! Thank you for this informative, emotional, and beautifully narrated documentary.
An Amasing documentary!!!!!
At the end his scissors were so large because they are dress maker shears. He went back to his childhood through those shears. Some times I feel I am crazy because I can't keep my hands still. Seeing him in his bed creating shows me it is ok and wonderful! thank you for putting this together and sharing your passion with us.
Very Fine
I really like the words "...The Number One Bad Boy of French Painting," which I'm capitalizing because it should be an official title.
Great show. Well worth the watch!
I love this series. I just wish there weren't sporadic silences after we go to New York. Very moving and inspiring though! :)
Annoying Copyright laws... a different song would have helped for the youtube viewing audience.
the background music MATCHES a Matisse documentary.
What a phantastic artist - working from “a tight belt” into total freedom, spontaneity and condensed memory - cantillating the joy of life while drawing with color looking for the essence - less detail, more feeling.filled with love and light
Wonderfully presented! Thank you!
Thank you for uploading this, it really is quite moving. I'll never look at the art same way again.
Music and dance are intensified paintings of the most curageous theme of painting - the joy of being alive. Its a true Eye opener to experience how the simplification makes each line vibrate with feelin and sensuality filled with intense pure colors singing out a passionate aliveness
The documentary gotta be amazing when it starts of with Aphex twin playing in the background

Beautifully moving. RIP Shining Light.
I really appreciate how you take us on a journey through Matisse's places and paintings and the impact relationships with the contemporary art and things. A big greeting from Venezuela. Thank so much.
I love Matisse. I love art. Thank you
I almost thought as some this guy is ? But after a while I came to like him , as he really feels the art. As an artist not a lot of people feel the art, but children always do !
Thank you so much for uploading this video, the ending was very moving, i'm currently writing an essay on two of his works!! Thanks again, this helped me alot!!
maddening that the sound disappeared throughout this wonderful documentary about the great Henri Matisse
Too many disruptive ads. SO annoying!
Very beautifully done video of truly a Master. Thank you.
Art speaks for itself.
This is a new doc for me on Henri Matisse. Very informative; I'll watch it several times an some more. Each time it opens new insight. I saw his Lady with the Flower Hat in San Francisco.
Thank you for posting. I'm tethered to an area void of culture, and look to pieces like this for inspiration in all things pertaining to the heart.
@MKLNCJ Your very welcome. It's wonderful that it had a profound affect on you. I wish you a life time of great experiences on your journey into the world of art with this new perspective you now have. As for Henri Matisse, he was a great master in the arts, and his wonderful art lives on to inspire those today and the generations to come..... :)
@ MIKOS Could you please fix the audio: it just cuts off at several points throughout the film... At first, I thought there was something wrong with my tablet...
however multiple people have left comments describing the same problem. Thank you 😊
Wonderfull video on a phantastic artist
Well done to a an Interesting and Much Appreciated video!!!
I have watched this years ago and still remember the ending, so I watch it again
Yes that church is beautiful. Christ suffered for us so that we can have life and have it more abundantly. Amen.
Dam it feels good to be named after this inspiring artist ❤️
Are you an artist or just curious about this great man?

In 2005/06 I lived in San Francisco at a hostel in the SoMa area. One wall on the fourth floor i dedicated to Matisse's Jazz series. Icarus, le clown and monsiur loyal I'd reproduced on different walls on that floor, then bits and pieces of the other paintings were done over a one hundred and fifty foot wall nine feet high. In 2007 I went back and the hostel had been turned into a boutique hotel... Everything had been painted over. That book was my inspiration, I had borrowed it from the SF library, they got annoyed with me borrowing it. I wished i could have shown them what I had done. Matisse has always been an inspiration in my abstract works, along with Pollock and Riopelle, he always makes me stretch my use of colour.
Thoroughly enjoyed. Thank you so much :) 💖✌
Lovely and touching video. I love how your personality shows there, you have so much passion ❤️ thank you for that!
The Doku ist very, very good. Thank's.
Excellent just excellent!
16:40 art rarely makes me cry. The dancers is soooooo beautiful
Hi. I think the blued nude is a cut out paper. Not a painting. To be more accurate. You may want to research this. Regards.
Love how he explained all the painting in the book Jazz
Watching this for my art lesson
Excellent thank you for sharing
thanks for making this film. I am studying it. thanks
Thanks for this great documentary on Matisse;this helped me create an amazing art project over him and his life's work.
Brilliantly curated Life and works of Matisse. The presenter and produces have curated a veritable masterpiece. PLEASE correct the audio in the last couple of minutes.
I was enjoying this very much but no matter what I did I kept getting a huge section that would fast forward automatically at 27:17 through 27:46. I would lose sound during the Chapel of the Rosary. What's up with that?
Same
Wonderful job on this biography! Cudos!
So fascinating these artists, of the most famous names, so many creative individuals to appreciate, on the earth, many not as noticed, comparable to the names that made history books, art history. All still God knows the names, and whomever gets to appreciate the art, artists, the experience. If only one could have enough time to appreciate all the art, creativity, creative people in the world, on all the earth, they’d be there all day, everyday. 😊
Missing audio at various points throughout video.
Copyright infringement of the music used at those points in the video.
i know. and i loved watching this wonderful documentary.
@@brooklynbabydoll718 sad
It was a particularly moving part of the programme I remember, I do not remember the background music. . . interesting.
It's from a popular song I think it's called New York by Alicia keys and Jay z
I love Matiss...thank you this video
Fantastic!
I have to do art essay's on artists of my choice, Leonardo Da Vinci, Vincent Van Gogh and how the wonderful Henri Matisse.
His work was incredible, and I must admit I was rather moved by this documentary.
At 42:56 Matisse writes in his cut out book, "Do I believe in God? Yes, when I work"
wow that grandfather clock with out the arms is pretty clever, like, is it daytime? night? bitch its RED
this comment is soooo funny!
I do see his worth. Art is Art. The quality is in the use of the palet not the technical assumption.
Once i saw a Mattis in a magazine. I wanted to draw it so i did, without knowing who the artist was. Now it´s hanging in my son´s appartment on the wall & he says some of his friends like & ask about it. What cought my eyes in his painting was its simplicity, rich colors & the motion in one section of painting( here just wind blowing through a curtain ) as compaired to the rest of it which was figurative ( such as woman at rest, a dog, plants & .....) , but motionless .
Excellent documentary! Thanks. Song question, is that Robin Guthrie playing during Jazz, 42:30?
the Chapel wow just amazing it is . x
Exelentes documentales ;, gracias por toda la investigación que permite conocer mas a fondo , el porque cada uno de los artistas deciden expresar sus emociones mediante las artes
:( frustrating recording - expect total sound silence in areas
that's just from youtube detecting and silencing copyright music in those parts
Very good.
Please reupload this video and this time with no missing audio.
i love how he’s so into the chapel, he got so excited
Matisse: I think I have appendicitis.
Doctor: NO, You are depressed.
Matisse: Oh.
I think they messed up at 6:47 because it was Monet who fell in love and married his model Camille, not Matisse. Caroline was the name of the model Matisse had a daughter with.
socalsal627 - well spotted!
Just to be clear. The “blue nude”at the start was not a painting, but a lithograph.
( thanks, Edward)
If it that was signed Schmo no one would even look at it.
@@polyethylene6773 ..with all due respect, I don't understand your comment.
Renzo with all due respect “the blue nudes” were a series of “prints” a lithograph. Kind of like a screen print. Warhol used this type of style for his “paintings”... Matisse was ahead of his time.
@@edwardsirias8617 Quite right !
Great video, I learned a lot. Some segments do not have audio. Bravo! Anyway.
Love Matisse
Great film,but sound goes in and out periodically throughout
the sound cuts off after he say some thought the beast had lost his roar.
ruclips.net/video/i4mJd0pkRl8/видео.html
very good documentary! FYI after 58 minutes, the volume would disappear, spiratically.
It’s so hard to enjoy watching a docu on the beauty of art with all these ridiculous ads. I know it’s the greed of RUclips and not the posting person. I wish RUclips would find another way to feather their nests.
Agree .
No ads now
Awesome, glad you enjoyed it!
If anyone is inspired by art you really have to check out the original paintings,They literally are a knockout!
Says the man who saw van gogh and monets work in Paris.
A video or photo doesnt do them justice at all.
If it looks like shit in a small photo its usually far worse in reality.
Love this series, but 360p?
Thanks for the great video.
37:54, "..he's got very long, metal shears."
I won't dispute that Henri was extremely talented, but I think the length and weight of said shears would make for a much more stable and predictable utensil for making art than the smaller, albeit sharper scissors they used in the example which are presumably subject to every tremor of the hand. I just don't think the scissors make for an accurate comparison.
great video Thank You!
📱💈I knew Matisse was a great painter,but this documentary blew my image of him sky high.too bad the sound man or the camera stop working.Ill have to watch this documentary many times to really get his art in my head.
The ending ties up nice in this documentary on Henri Matisse. Though I had seen photos of what Henri Matisse created at the end. It's quite moving to see it filmed. I would love to see it in person someday..
MIKOS l have seen the chapel in Vence. I cried. I don't know anyone who doesn't feel moved.
Is there a problem with the sound occasionally on this video? I only ask because I've noticed that our cable sometimes has audio blanks and wasn't sure if it was on my end.
8:31 I wonder if his wife expressed the feeling of being threatened by his painting of other women and he said that in response?
Great documentary but what happened to the sound?
why does the sound cut out a couple of times? i will say, i am not good at reading lips.
what is the song at 32:45
I've heard that one a long time ago and I was also wondering. Lemme know if u find it.
Radiohead - "Nude". You're welcome!
@@ChevronChick-717 thank you, 5 years later and I still loved it
The sound of colour - beautifull expression of the feeling of color as a song of life
Serious gaps in the sound portion of the otherwise excellent documentary.
A lot of the audio on this documentary is missing and makes it really crap to watch.
Congratulations 🥳
Your welcome Frank. If there are advertisements I have zero to do with that, it's youtube doing it. I totally understand though.
Thank you
Very good
