[edit] 1
This article really needs to be expanded. How do you flag it as a stub? 137.131.130.34 20:46, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
You're right about the inadequacy of this article given the importance of its subject, but it doesn't qualify for a stub tag. Rule of thumb for a stub is an article 3-10 sentences long--for more info on this see WP:STUB. To answer you question: You can always tag a stub by typing the word stub between {{}} doubled curly brackets. Ewulp 04:18, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

"in the Musée Franciscain-Eglise et Monastère de Cimiez, in the Cimiez neighbourhood of Nice, Alpes-Maritimes in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur Region of France."
What's that inflation ! I can also tel you it's near the arena if you come by the highway, leave the highway at "Nice-Nord" you drive to the Hôpital Pasteur you should turn on the right to take the "Avenue de la Voie Romaine" etc....
God I was blind ! Matisse is not buried in the "in the Musée Franciscain-Eglise et Monastère de Cimiez" but in the cemetery near the "Monastère de Cimiez" like most people do. By the way Cimiez is in Nice not near Nice. Ericd
[edit] Matisse in Maroc
There is nothing here about the extremely influential time that the artist spent in Tanger. I do not feel confident enough in my artistic background to cover it, but I know that the time he spent there significantly influenced his use of light in paintings.

[edit] pre-1923 artwork
Can't we add all of his pre 1923/2 artwork, because it is in the public domain, to Wikimedia Commons and to all the relevant articles? --Rajah 03:24, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
- Unfortunately, his paintings are only public domain in the U.S. if they were *published* before 1923. Exhibiting a painting doesn't count as publishing it, so it's not a foregone conclusion that his paintings were published close to the time they were made. —Celithemis 20:37, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Influenced by Matisse
The following line seems better left out:
- He is also the great influence of the last living student of Picasso, Marcel Mouly.
Matisse was a huge influence on a lot of 20th century artists; Mouly is not an especially notable one compared to say De Kooning, Appel, Diebenkorn, Joan Brown, Purrmann, Carles, Bearden, Avery, Motherwell, or many others. The claim "last living student" can't be proven; did Picasso have formal students? Paloma Picasso is a designer and probably got pointers from her dad...Ewulp 02:46, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
- In 2004 L'Atelier Rouge came in at No.5 of a poll of 500 art experts voting for the most influential modern art work of all time.

- Might be worth mentioning in the article... --BjKa 10:30, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Picture Pages
I'm not going to add another line to the "partial list of works" as I think most of these stubs are quite useless clutter as they are. (except for the ones with images of course). However if someone would like to add Le Bateau (1958) – which won quite some notoriety in 1961 when it hung upside down at MoMA for several days until someone noticed – here's two useful weblinks about that story:

[edit] Armory Show 1913
The Armory Show of 1913 which marked a milestone in modern art was held in New York City, I believe, not in Chicago as stated in the text. Jim S.Jimshaw (talk) 17:40, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
