This image shows two paintings. The first is an abstract composition filled with a dense array of brightly coloured geometric and organic shapes in red, blue, yellow, white, and black. It suggests a chaotic urban environment or a dynamic interplay of architectural and industrial elements. The second painting is a stylized depiction of an artist’s studio, dominated by deep reddish-brown tones. The room contains various artworks, including framed paintings and sculptures, scattered across the walls and furniture. A table in the foreground holds a fruit bowl, a wine glass, a decorated plate, and matchsticks, while a chair and easel add to the intimate, creative atmosphere. The scene is flat and decorative, with bold outlines and minimal perspective.
Stuart Davis, Swing Landscape (1938) + Matisse, The Red Studio (1911)
Stuart Davis described the 1913 Armory Show—which included this Matisse work—as “the greatest single influence I have experienced in my work.”

#StuartDavis, if you're here, I'm grateful you played that gig at my alma mater way back when. Bought the CD on the spot and have listened to it so much since.
