Included with exhibition ticket for Matisse. 1941–1954
Jazz-Matisse
This exhibition highlights Henri Matisse's final years of creativity, between 1941 and 1954. A room specially dedicated to the Jazz album, considered one of the pinnacles of artist's books, features an electroacoustic creation by Claudia Jane Scroccaro. The composer offers an immersive and continuous soundscape that allows for individualized listening fragments. This is a direct echo of the structure of Matisse's book, where each plate can be viewed separately, while still forming part of a larger whole.
