The large painting depicts the artist's work environment in Issy-les-Moulineaux, crowded with his own canvases, sculptures, furniture, and decorative objects. Matisse's radical decision to saturate the work's surface with red has continued to fascinate generations of scholars and artists. Yet much remains to be explored in terms of the painting's genesis and history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis show presents a unique opportunity to assess Matisse's painting anew. The first gallery of the exhibition will reunite \u003cem\u003eThe Red Studio\u003c\/em\u003e — in MoMA's collection since 1949 — with the works depicted in it (three of them belong to the Statens Museum for Kunst). Ranging from 1898 to 1911, they span the artist's career up to that date and combine both familiar and lesser-known pieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe second gallery of the exhibition will retrace the painting's complex history, from the artist's studio in the Parisian suburb to its subsequent international travels and reception.
