Small Crouching Nude without an Arm, 1908, cast 1909

Henri Matisse

An abstract painting in greens and blues shows many small, card- or brick-like squares and rectangles merging at bottom and encroaching upon the center from the sides, like a wall trying to close itself, or a wall opening. Beyond these shapes is the suggestion of a hazy green sky with clouds and perhaps more shapes.

Towards the Unknown, 1950

Gunther Gerzso

Geometric forms fragment a vertical composition containing a woodgrain table with newspapers, a guitar, and a stemmed wine glass. These objects are vividly painted within a V-shaped fragment at center. Muted, shadowlike versions of the objects appear outside it. The outline of the guitar is repeated in the V in brown, green, blue, and black alongside a fragment of brown floral wallpaper.
