Illustrations
In the 1970s, Matton worked with Jean-Paul Goude at Esquire,[3] working as an illustrator and a photographer.[4]
The Boxes
In 1983, Matton was able to show his art in Paris, and in 1987, he exhibited at the Palais de Tokyo. There, he showed what would become his famous Boxes.[5] Then, in 1989, he exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art of Paris, the Centre Georges Pompidou.[6]
During the last decade of his life, Matton showed his work all around the world, especially in New York and Los Angeles, through the Forum Gallery.[7]
