Modern Forms: Matisse, Picasso, and Pollock

Join Jay A. Clarke, Manton Curator of Prints, Drawings, and Photographs, The Clark, as she addresses the liberation of drawing in the first half of the twentieth century as the medium’s function shifted from preparatory to independent. Practitioners such as Matisse, Picasso, and Pollock embraced elements of chance, radical spatial construction, and the subconscious in their graphic production. Clarke will consider how the very practice of drawing encouraged artists to grapple with changing modern forms as they worked in line, wash, and collage.
