Round 3: Tossup 18

Each painting in Eric Fischl’s gallery Late America is set near these places, (10[1])which another artist depicted using pulp in a set of “paper” types of these places. A late cutout work by Henri Matisse installed in his dining room titled for one of these places depicts a series of blue figures on white paper. Masking tape was used to create straight lines in another painting of these places, whose title figure was based on a Polaroid of a man standing against an MG car. A man in a pink jacket inspired by the artist’s lover Peter Schlesinger (10[1])looks down at one of these places (10[2])in the painting Portrait of an Artist. A house, an empty director’s (10[1])chair, (10[1])and two palm trees appear by one of these (-5[1])places in a 1973 (10[1])painting by the artist of Mr and Mrs Clark and Percy. For 10 points, name this type of place depicted in David Hockney’s A Bigger (10[1])Splash. ■END■ (10[2])
