The painting, which has hung in MoMA's galleries since 1949, depicts the artist's studio in the Parisian suburb of Issy-les-Moulineaux, filled with his own artworks, furniture and decorative objects. Matisse's radical decision to saturate the work's surface with red has fascinated generations of scholars and artists, yet much remained to be discovered about the painting's genesis and history.\u003cbr\u003ePublished in conjunction with an exhibition that reunites the artworks shown in \u003ci\u003eThe Red Studio\u003c\/i\u003e for the first time since they left Matisse's work space, this copiously illustrated catalog examines the paintings and sculptures depicted in it, from familiar works such as \u003ci\u003eYoung Sailor II\u003c\/i\u003e (1906) to lesser-known pieces whose locations have only recently been discovered. A narrative essay by Ann Temkin, the Marie-Josée and Henry Kravis Chief Curator of Painting and Sculpture at the Museum of Modern Art, New York, and Dorthe Aagesen, Chief Curator and Senior Researcher at Statens Museum for Kunst, Copenhagen, traces the life of \u003ci\u003eThe Red Studio\u003c\/i\u003e, from the initial commissioning of the work in 1911 through its early history of exhibition and ownership to its arrival at MoMA after World War II. The book features a rich selection of archival materials, including photographs, letters and ephemera, many of which have never before been published or exhibited. With its groundbreaking research and close reading of the work, \u003ci\u003eMatisse: The Red Studio\u003c\/i\u003e transforms our understanding of this landmark of 20th-century art.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Matisse, Henri\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/31\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Museum of Modern Art\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781633451322\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.70h x 9.10w x 1.00d","brand":"Henri Matisse","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39849031303243,"sku":"9781633451322","price":55.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0021\/1697\/6715\/products\/img_d2990ed4-53c3-4ec0-9499-f08d40995f42.jpg?v=1662551706","url":"https:\/\/blackbookstore.com\/products\/matisse-the-red-studio-9781633451322","provider":"Black Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
