Alison Leslie Gold
In The Woman Who Brought Matisse Back from the Dead, award-winning author of Anne Frank Remembered and The Devil?s Mistress, Alison Leslie Gold presents the life of nun-cum-artist?s model Claude Boule. Inspired by a true story and told in spare, evocative prose, this improbable, color-soaked life arc spans the art of Henri Matisse and Andy Warhol, a convent in 1930s Nice, wartime Lyon, postwar Paris, New York in the dazzling 60s on to millennium?s end. The Woman Who Brought Matisse Back from the Dead explores the abstruse relationship between artist and model: Who transfixes whom? The incidental, often travail-filled, life of Claude Boule ? impenetrable and inscrutable ? serves as a poignant foil for intimate views into the creative processes and behind-the-scenes life of one of the 20th century?s most momentous artists. The brash assemblage of The Woman Who Brought Matisse Back from the Dead also encompasses diverse uncelebrated but no less vividly tinctured people whose lives were touched ? erotically, devoutly, unscrupulously and in other often unpredictable ways ? by the model?s.
