Hanabi (fireworks) is a series inspired by Matisse’s work in Vence between 1943 and 1947. Artist Mickael Doucet takes up the idea of the palm tree that can be seen through the window in two works by the master of color: Still Life with Pomegranate and Still Life with Egyptian Curtain. Micka\u00ebl Doucet had the idea of reappropriating these two works by painting them in his own style, and presenting them in this series as the two entry points to the exhibition. While detaching himself from Matissian iconography, he constructs a series of luminous, colorfully atmospheric paintings common to both artists, with Matisse’s image of the palm tree as a common thread, recurring like a pictorial leitmotif in each canvas, less abstract and more figurative than the master’s, but for a very specific reason: the title of the exhibition is taken from Takeshi Kitano’s film Hanabi (Fireworks), winner of the Golden Lion at Venice in 1997.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
