Opening reception Thursday, February 11, 6 to 9 PM
Bleu Acier is proud to announce L’’Arabesque, a group show in homage to this exceptional moment coinciding with the opening of the new Tampa Museum of Art – a landmark for culture in our city – and the museum’s first major exhibition dedicated to the prints and drawings of French artist Henri Matisse, whose use of the arabesque was monumental within the history of art. Matisse was one of the last Modern artists to become a master of graphic writing, and remains so influential that contemporary artists still think of him within the context of their process.
