From still life to modernism · aquarium, fishing and the marine world
Painting fish forces the artist to bring together two worlds that are difficult to fix: the movement of water and the brilliance of a body that captures light. Henri Matisse simplifies aquariums, plants and furniture to make his goldfish shine at the heart of color. Paul Klee reduces six fish to an almost musical language of lines, rhythms and signs. Joaquin Sorolla leaves all decorative vision in And what's more, they say that fish is expensive!: painted in 1894, the social realism scene shows the human risks hidden behind the price of fishing. In Skagen, Michael Ancher observes the women who clean the fish and gives the daily gesture, the wind and the shore collective dignity. There selection thus moves from contemplation to subsistence, from the calm interior to maritime work. The "Fish Paintings" selection notably compares Goldfish and 6 Fish. His reading favors figures.
The fish can be an orange spot, a graphic sign or the result of dangerous work: its meaning depends on the world that the painter places around it.
