Besides being silly and forced, such efforts don't really do justice to the art, which conveys its meanings tentatively and suggestively. Symbols can have many meanings, whereas allegories mean only one thing. An In-Depth Look at the Art of Henri Matisse. The event offers an intimate look at the life and work of one of the most celebrated artists in the museum's Cone Collection. Participants in the symposium will include Matisse biographer Hilary Spurling, art historian Jack Flam and BMA curators Jay Fisher and Katy Rothkopf.
