Matisse, Cocteau made canvases of two chapels

Both are masterworks created by artists late in their careers: Cocteau began work on his chapel when he was 68 and Matisse started in his 70s. And both reflect a singular vision of their creators: Matisse’s clean line and color and Cocteau’s fantasmagorical merging of myth and catechism.

VENCE, France - Regardless of our religious inclinations, when we travel, we wander through grand cathedrals and mosques, sometimes as though they were museums, awestruck by the light, the smell of incense, or the sounds of an ancient organ.

But sometimes it’s the simpler sacred spaces that draw us, intimate places built not over hundreds of years, but maybe a decade, that reflect the dedication - or downright obsession - of their creators. The traveler can find two such tiny chapels not far from the center of Nice in the south of France. Henri Matisse’s Chapelle du Sainte Marie du Rosaire is set on a hillside in this pretty 15th-century hilltown, while Jean Cocteau’s Chapelle Saint-Pierre sits near the waterfront of Villefranche-sur-Mer.

Long before Occupy Wall Street, artist took on social injustice

Five of the portable frescoes are versions of designs completed in Mexico: “Sugar Cane,” “Liberation of the Peon,” “Agrarian Leader Zapata,” “The Uprising” and “Indian Warrior,” which shows an Aztec in jaguar costume plunging a crystal knife into the neck of a fallen, fully-armored Spaniard. The other three Rivera did during the uproar following the opening, and were added over the six-month run of the show. They all show New York City scenes, and “Pneumatic Drilling” and “Electric Power” have the expressive dynamism that many Depression-era or Socialist Realist paintings display when confronted with modern industry.

Rivera had learned the essence of this technique when the revolutionary Mexican ministry of culture asked him to spend more than a year in Italy, studying the decorative schema of the Renaissance, in order to create a similar program back home. The paradoxes of Socialist Realism’s invention overlap like the leaves of a maguey plant: Rivera invented a modern art of the people by studying paintings commissioned by bankers and merchants and priests, while at the same time enjoying the patronage of the most successful merchant bankers of his own time.
