Round 11: Tossup 18

Each painting in Eric Fischl’s gallery Late America is set near these places, 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 (10[1])titled for one of these (10[1])places depicts a series of blue figures on white paper. (-5[1])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 looks down at one of these places (10[2])in (10[1])the painting Portrait of an Artist. A house, an empty director’s chair, and two palm trees appear by one of these places (10[1])in a 1973 painting (10[1])by the artist of Mr and Mrs Clark and (10[1])Percy. For 10 points, name this type of place depicted in David Hockney’s A Bigger (10[2])Splash. (10[2])■END■
