Henri Matisse’s abstract cut-outs are used to teach colours in this innovative read-aloud board book
Blue & Other Colours takes children through Henri Matisse’s colour palette, one artwork per page, beginning with blue and returning to it as a familiar refrain throughout. The variance of shapes, depth, and scale of the shapes on each page will keep readers engaged, while the text enriches the reading experience with relatable commentary that encourages conversation.
Henri Matisse's innovative use of colour has inspired generations of artists. His cutouts – collages made from shapes cut from painted paper in a process he described as ‘painting with scissors’ – have become some of the most admired works of the last century.
Through this groundbreaking book, readers will not only learn their colours, but also grow familiar with fine art.
