---- 巴黎現代藝術博物館正在為瑪格麗特·迪蒂特·馬蒂斯舉辦一場新展覽，她是亨利·馬蒂斯的私生女，亨利·馬蒂斯曾是他最常合作的模特兒。瑪格麗特出生於 1894 年，當時馬蒂斯正與卡羅琳·喬布勞 (Caroline Joblau) 交往，她得到了父親的認可，並與他後來的孩子們一起長大。儘管她兒時曾接受過氣管切開術，身體狀況十分脆弱，但她還是加入了法國抵抗運動，遭受了蓋世太保的折磨，並險些被驅逐出境。 馬蒂斯在整個職業生涯中都在描繪她，經常描繪她穿著高領上衣或用圍巾遮住傷疤的樣子。展覽將於 4 月開幕，展出超過 110 件作品，包括繪畫、素描、雕塑和陶瓷，其中許多來自私人收藏。瑪格麗特成為父親的助手和代理人，負責管理父親的版畫、展覽和檔案，直到 1982 年去世，享年 87 歲。 巴黎現代藝術博物館11 大道 du Président Wilson 75116 巴黎 +33 1 53 67 40 00 #亨利馬蒂斯 ＃女兒 #瑪格麗特 #法國抵抗運動 #蓋世太保 #museedartmodernedeparis 圖mage: Henri, Amélie and Marguerite Matisse in 1907.

The Musée d’Art Moderne in Paris is dedicating a new exhibition to Marguerite Duthuit Matisse, the illegitimate daughter of Henri Matisse, who was his most frequent model. Born in 1894 during Matisse’s relationship with Caroline Joblau, Marguerite was recognized by her father and raised alongside his later children. Despite fragile health following a childhood tracheotomy, she joined the French resistance, was tortured by the Gestapo, and narrowly escaped deportation. Matisse painted her throughout his career, often depicting her in high-neck blouses or scarves covering her scar. The exhibition, opening in April, will showcase over 110 works—including paintings, drawings, sculptures, and ceramics—many from private collections. Marguerite became her father’s assistant and agent, overseeing his engravings, exhibitions, and archives until her death in 1982 at age 87.

根據這，我們可作林懷民的雲門，可這要一本厚厚的書來處理才行。
我想出的替代是 Henri Matisse與 "the Dance" ，一輩子的舞蹈之"再現"。 其實這題目也不簡單。 ****
儘管讀過 Jack Flam的專書，記得書中沒提過 H. MATISSE作此大壁畫時，哼的是早期酒店CABARET的 farandole 舞/歌的頭兩句： "Let's play to God for those whose are broke! Let's play to God for those who've not a bean!"
What we’re watching: The BBC’s “Swan Lake Bath Ballet.” Dan Saltzstein, our deputy editor for Special Sections, writes: “Twenty-seven elite dancers perform the ballet from their home baths. Cool, weird and, oh yeah, they are hot.”
For dance students, the annual recital is the biggest event of the year. Whether in parks or in parking lots, some studios are determined to make it happen in a pandemic year.
