| * Approximate price based on current exchange rates | Biography Marc Chagall (1887–1985) was born in Belarus. Chagall began his education at a traditional Jewish school in Vitebsk. Chagall moved to St. Petersberg in 1907 and continued his studies at the Zvantseva School. In 1910 Chagall moved to Paris and his inventive imagery won immediate recognition in the city's avant-garde circles. Here he began to assimilate cubist characteristics into his expressionistic style. He is considered a forerunner of surrealism. The artist returned to Belarus in 1915 where his support of the Bolshevik Revolution led to his appointment as Commissar for the Arts in Vitebsk in 1918. Chagall returned to Paris in 1922, where where he spent most of his life.
Among Chagall's well-known works are I and the Village (1911; Mus. of Modern Art, New York City) and The Rabbi of Vitebsk (Art Inst., Chicago).
He designed the sets and costumes for Stravinsky's ballet Firebird (1945). Chagall's twelve stained-glass windows, symbolizing the tribes of Israel, were exhibited in Paris and New York City before being installed (1962) in the Hadassah-Hebrew Univ. Medical Center synagogue in Jerusalem. His two vast murals for New York's Metropolitan Opera House, treating symbolically the sources and the triumph of music, were installed in 1966. |
