DESCRIPTION:Apr 9 - May 22\, 2026\nMatisse is so thoroughly associated with
  color that his life as a sculptor tends to be overlooked. Yet he made ove
 r 80 sculptures\, and by his own account the two practices were inseparabl
 e: he turned to clay when he had pushed a problem in paint as far as it wo
 uld go. As a result\, figures in the same pose appear in both media. Matis
 se’s Large Seated Nude\, labored over across seven years (1922 to 1929)\
 , finds its echo in the odalisque paintings made alongside it. The four Ba
 ck reliefs\, modeled between 1909 and 1931\, show the gradual abstraction 
 of a human figure into something architectural. Acquavella—which has dea
 lt in exceptional Matisses for over 60 years but has not mounted a show de
 voted to the artist since 1973—now presents 50 paintings\, sculptures\, 
 and works on paper that make the connections visible.
