Event Description Join art historian Victoria Martino for a stunning, revelatory, and celebratory five-week lecture series, illuminating the life and works of Henri Matisse in honor of his 150th anniversary. Fifth Lecture - November 26: Of Cut-outs and Chapels--The Final Years Bedridden, due to severe complications resulting from cancer surgery, Matisse found his infinite capacity for creativity and innovation led to a new art form: the paper cut-out. One of his last and greatest works was the design of a chapel in Vence, a project resulting from his friendship with a young woman who had nursed him during his convalescence and who had become a nun.
