Art+References

You may notice in the Art room some small cartoon like transfers on cupboards and walls which relate to a famous work of art. One of my favourite sculptors is [|Isamu Nogichi] who did some monumental stone carvings but also designed furniture which has influenced modern design.

One of these art works is a relief sculpture by Henri Matisse a [|Fauvist] painter, famous for his colourful paintings. Here is a link to an [|Art Dictionary] that discusses various techniques with examples of artists' work. Below is a "cut out" art work by [|Henri Matisse] where you can see his bold use of colour and shapes.
