Marc Chagall. Years breakthrough, 1911 — 1919
Exhibition September 16, 2017 − January 21, 2018
Exhibition"Marc Chagall. Years breakthrough, 1911 — 1919" at the Museum of fine art Basel brings together nearly a hundred paintings. This is an exceptional selection of works from the collection of the Museum itself and the collection of Carla They Obersteg, who was one of the first connoisseurs of the artist's work. In addition to this picture provided MOMA, Museum Ludwig (Cologne), the Museum of Solomon Guggenheim (new York), Paris Centre Georges Pompidou, Russian Museum (St.-Petersburg), State Tretyakov gallery, the Israel Museum (Jerusalem), the Philadelphia Museum of art, the Art gallery of Toronto, the Staedel Museum in Frankfurt-on-main and others.
The title of the exhibition is not accidental. Marc Chagall found your style, your way in art when his life was torn between two opposing worlds — his native Vitebsk and Paris, where he lived from 1911 to 1914.
The exhibition presents photographs of the artist and his family, and a whole room devoted to pictures of two outstanding photographers of the Jewish towns and Jewish life of Roman Vishniac and Solomon Yudovin.
