Mood of the Moment
“Art should be something like a good armchair
in which to rest from physical fatigue.”
— HENRI M ATISSE
Among its powers, art is a
salve. To the French painter
and master colorist Henri
Matisse, it represented both
emotion and relief. That he
painted his artworks into
Large Red Interior—his last
finished oil painting, on exhibit
through September 10 at the
Museum of Modern Art—is
telling of its potency, and
even necessity, within our
own environments. In this
issue, we explore the role
of art in exceptional design,
from the works we collect for
our interiors to the enduring
impact of craft in our most
important buildings—and
how each becomes a personal
bolt-hole of wonder and
self-expression.
