Featuring 100 works by the two artists this exhibition explored the inspiration Richard Diebenkorn found in the paintings of Henri Matisse. Consideration of Matisse’s use of colour and subject matter are evident in Diebenkorn’s earlier work while the lineal and saturated field of Mattise’s abstraction ‘View of Notre Dame’ 1914 influenced Diebenkorn’s most celebrated ‘Ocean Park’ series.
