Jeremy Sutton as Henri Matisse

Tableau Vivant at the de Young Museum, San Francisco, Sept. 14, 2012

In celebration of the opening of the exhibition "William S. Paley Collection: A Taste for Modernism" at the de Young Museum I portrayed the great French artist Henri Matisse in a tableau vivant (September, 2012). During the performance I drew, painted with sumi-e ink, gouache and acrylic paints, sculpted in clay and cut and glued paper cutouts.
