Metrano's Accidental Comedy deals with such an emotional kind of power, you really can't talk about it. He hit an emotional cord that's so deep, it's beyond the simple description of it." Barry Levinson---Academy Award-winning Director "It's something that defies words to see a man who has such gifts, such power. Metrano's story should be seen by everybody in the whole world." Jerry Stiller---Actor/ Comedian "It moved me so much I could barely speak. Metrano's Accidental Comedy is profoundly courageous, life-affirming and transformational." Laura Dern---Actress "Brilliant. I was very moved by Metrano's Accidental Comedy. I don't know how you can't be. It's very, very powerful, very funny, extremely moving. Quite an experience." Craig T. Nelson---Actor "If there is a definition in the dictionary for toughness, this guy's picture is right next to it. This is a smashingly great show!" Robert Forster---Actor "HE'S AMAZING AND IT'S NO ACCIDENT.Beautifully written, his narrative of his triumph over disaster is tremendously moving and deeply inspirational.." Howard Kissel---New York Daily News "Art Metrano's saga of courage and overcoming adversity will uplifting and inspirational to all readers." Vincent Bugliosi -Attorney & Author of "Helter Skelter" "This one-man comedy/drama is nothing short of breathtaking.

The American Matisse

The Dealer, His Artists, His Collection : the Pierre and Maria-Gaetana Matisse Collection

By: Metropolitan Museum of Art (New York, N.Y.),Sabine Rewald,Magdalena Dabrowski

In a career spanning over six decades, the New York art dealer Pierre Matisse (1900-1989) contributed substantially to the advancement of modern art. At his eponymous gallery on East Fifty-seventh Street, he showed several now legendary artists for the first time outside Europe. The collection--paintings, sculpture, and drawings by Balthus, Bonnard, Chagall, Derain, Dubuffet, Giacometti, Magritte, and the dealer's own father, Henri Matisse, among others--was donated to The Metropolitan Museum of Art in 2004 by the foundation established by his widow. These extraordinary artworks are presented with informative entries addressing the circumstances of each work's creation and the dealer's relationship to the artist. In the introduction, the story of Pierre Matisse's early struggles in New York is told for the first time and illustrated with previously unpublished archival photographs."--Provided by publisher.

Matisse, His Art and His Textiles

The Fabric of Dreams

By: Hilary Spurling,Ann Dumas,Musée Matisse (Le Cateau-Cambrésis, France),Metropolitan Museum of Art (New York, N.Y.)

Textiles were the key to Matisse's visual imagination. His ancestors had been weavers for generations: the textures and vibrancy of cloth were in his blood. Although Matisse was to outgrow every other influence, textiles retained their power to inspire his imagination throughout his life. His studio in Nice was a treasure house of exotic Persian carpets, delicate Arab embroideries, richly hued African wall hangings, curtains, costumes, patterned screens and backcloths. This sumptuously illustrated book, which includes over 100 works by Matisse together with numerous colourful fabrics, is the catalogue of a groundbreaking exhibition at the Musée Matisse, Le Cateau-Cambrésis; the Royal Academy of Arts, London; and the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York. Matisse's relationship with the textiles that surrounded him from his earliest days is revealed here for the first time. Charting how the fabrics he painted from became the very fabric of his paintings, the authors examine the ways in which Matisse used what he called his "working library" of textiles to furnish, order and compose some of the twentieth century's most pioneering works of art.
