The Problem of Description With Sight in Mind
-
- Visual Arts
Henry took on a problem that this podcast, and anyone who looks at art, faces:
'How do you take on something visual with a verbal description?'
Still on Matisse, in this episode we talk about a drawing he made called 'La Passe de Hapataki'. It's found in Nice at the Matisse Museum. Earlier this year, at a school event where he was promoting art history trips to Italy, Henry encountered a sceptic. The conversation went a bit like this:
Sceptic: I do science and maths; I don't like art.
Henry: Ever fancied getting away from it all?
If you, like the sceptic duly did, feel like getting away from it all, come on down to Nice and from there head to Hapataki. The drawing is a little bit hard to find, so head to our instagram to see it : https://www.instagram.com/withsightinmind/ .
If instagram isn't your thing, send us an email on withsightinmind@gmail.com and we'll send it your way!
Much love,
WSIM.
