Henri Matisse. The Red Studio. 1911. Oil on canvas. The Museum of Modern Art, New York. Mrs. Simon Guggenheim Fund. ©️ 2022 Succession H. Matisse/Artists Rights Society (ARS), New York Image description: A landscape-oriented painting of a room with framed artwork piled against the wall. Paintings and sculptures are displayed on tables, stools, and the walls. The entire room is painted a rusty red color, from floor to ceiling, including pieces of furniture and a grandfather clock in the center of the space.

Art inSight is a program for individuals who are blind or have low vision. Staff educators highlight specific themes, artists, or exhibitions through verbal description and discussion.

This program offers the chance to explore the exhibition Matisse: The Red Studio. The evening will start with an outdoor wine and cheese reception in the Museum’s Sculpture Garden at 5:00 p.m. This will be followed by a 6:00 gallery tour of the exhibition. Together we’ll unpack the radical nature of the painting’s almost entirely red surface and explore recent discoveries about how it was made.

Art inSight is free of charge. Space is limited and preregistration is required.
