Barnes Foundation plans Matisse colloquium in Philadelphia

A conference on Henri Matisse at the Barnes Foundation scheduled for 13 to 15 October will bring scholars to Philadelphia to discuss the artists continuing legacy. A series of lectures and panels will look at topics like the artists interest in non-Western art and will include speakers such as the historians Claudine Grammont and Helene Ivanoff.Our goal is to assess the state of our knowledge on Matisse today and to outline what could be done next in terms of future study, research, exhibitions,
