DEMETRIA DANIELS, SOPHIE MATISSE, KATIE COURIC @Francis M. Naumann Gallery
KATIE COURIC, television star newscaster attended  the opening of the grandaughter of Henri Matisse, the French painter .  Katie is renowned for her many year in NY television as a host and anchorwoman.  Many years ago, she courageously taped  a  medical procedure (colonoscopy)  for  all to watch , in hopes of saving lives and urging
her audience to get a checkup.  How brave, how extraordinary .  She remains an effervescent, jolly, personality.
The bold colors of Sophie, reminds one of  Henri Matisse, who also designed the Matisse chapel in the South of France, and is part of an amazing exhibit at the Met. Museum of Art, called "The Steins".  - a must see show about the art
of Gertrude Stein and her family in Paris.
