By the time he got to his much later “Blue Nude,” the paper cutout of 1952, he had nearly made the two mediums one. And, after him, the deluge. The constantly mutating fusion of painting and sculpture has been one of the main themes of contemporary art ever since.

“Matisse: Painter as Sculptor” runs through Feb. 3 at the Baltimore Museum of Art, 10 Art Museum Drive, Baltimore, (443) 573-1700 or artbma.org.

TODAY'S PAPERS

The Sunshine Boys

By Daniel Politi
Posted Monday, Jan. 21, 2008, at 6:37 AM ET
The New York Times and Washington Post lead with a look at Florida, the next state on the Republican primary calendar, which could provide the most decisive victory in a still-crowded field before Super Primary Day on Feb. 5. Everyone agrees the Sunshine State is the most important date yet for the Republicans and that it's going to be a fierce battle. Both papers highlight the diversity of the state ("a series of mini-nations," is how the WP puts it) and the way each candidate is trying to win his piece of the pie.
