(*) Marc Chagall, the eldest of nine children in a Jewish family, was born in Vitebsk (Russia) in 1887. After completing secondary studies (1906), he spent two months in Jehuda Pen’s workshop; the following year he attended Zvanseva School and Leon Bakst’s workshop in St. Petersburg. In 1910 Chagall received a patron-funded work grant that allowed him to live in Paris. He settled in La Ruche (the Hive), worked intensely, met Guillaume Apollinaire, André Salmon, Max Jacob, Blaise Cendrars with whom he befriended. He first exhibited at the Salon des Indépendants. In 1914 Der Stum Gallery (Berlin) organized his first solo exhibition. In early 1914 he returned to Russia for a few months but stayed there for several years, married, and had his first child. The revolution broke out in 1917. He was named director of the School of Fine Arts in Vitebsk, organized teaching, invitingPougn y, El Lissitzky, Malevich. After a disagreement with the Suprematist movement, in 1920 Chagall resigned and settled in Moscow. The following year he began drafting “My Life,” his autobiography, and produced his first etchings in 1922 to illustrate his work. In 1923 he returned to Paris where he met Vollard who would commission numerous works from him thereafter. His life was filled with new encounters: Tériade, Maillol, Rouault, Vlaminck, Bonnard. 1926 was the year of his first exhibition in the United States. In 1927 Bernheim-Jeune became his agent. In 1930 Vollard commissioned a work on the Bible, a piece he would not complete until 1956.
The 1930s for him were a period of numerous travels, experiments with antisemitism in Poland, and his naturalization as French (1937). The year when his paintings were removed from German museums! The family took refuge in Saint-Dié-sur-Loire; later, in 1940, in Gordes. He emigrated to the United States in 1941 and that same year Matisse became his new dealer. He returned to Paris in 1946, mourning the death of his wife Bella (1944). After the retrospective organized by MOMA in 1947, several exhibitions followed across Europe (Paris, Amsterdam, Bern, Zurich). At first he settled in Orgeval, spent a long stay in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat until finally settling in Vence, where Aimé Maeght became his agent. Chagall began working with ceramics, created murals, and his first sculptures. The following 35 years would be a period of frenetic work (paintings, frescoes, decorations, engravings, mosaics, stained glass) that saw the artist rise to the peak of recognition, one of the greatest masters of the 20th century. The Museum of the Biblical Message opened in Nice in 1973. Chagall died in Saint-Paul-de-Vence on March 28, 1988.
