Description
A fan of vertical green leaves radiates outward from a centered point against a soft pale green ground, evoking the botanical abstractions of Henri Matisse's cut-paper work. Bold capital lettering reading "MATISSE" anchors the top of the composition, while additional text in smaller type grounds the piece with institutional and archival information, creating the aesthetic of a museum poster from mid-century modernism. At home in a gallery-inspired space or a room devoted to modern art and design history. A Baltic birch top with the artwork printed across it, made to order on steel legs in black or gold. The center of the room as an independent artist's work, not a flat-pack lookalike.
