He is recognized as one of the most significant painters and graphic artists of the 20th century. His work treats subjects in a vein of humor and fantasy that draws deeply on the resources of the unconscious. Chagall's personal and unique imagery is often suffused with exquisite poetic inspiration. Chagall was born July 7, 1887, in Vitsyebsk, Russia (now in Belarus), and was educated in art in Saint Petersburg and, from 1910, in Paris, where he remained until 1914. Between 1915 and 1917 he lived in Saint Petersburg; after the

68. Keramiken Vom Marc Chagall
Sommerausstellung in der Stadthalle Balingen vom 21. Juni bis 28. September 2003.
http://www.beilharz.com/qs/qs-chagall.htm
Quickshot - Schnellschuss vom 18.06.2003 Quickshot-Index Ausstellung in der Stadthalle Balingen vom 21. Juni bis 28. September 2003
Keramiken von Marc Chagall
Eine besondere Ausstellung innerhalb des Balinger Kunstsommers 2003 ist vom 21. Juni bis 28. September in der Stadthalle Balingen zu sehen. Rund 80 der von Chagall geschaffenen 194 Keramiken werden vom Kurator der Ausstellung, Prof. Dr. Roland Doschka, und dem Direktor der Stadthalle Balingen, Ulrich Klingel, präsentiert. Bei den Werken handelt es sich ausschließlich um Unikate, die größtenteils aus dem Nachlass in Bern und Paris stammen und Leihgaben der Chagall-Enkelin Meret Meyer-Grab sind, die damit einen maßgeblichen Beitrag zur Balinger Ausstellung leistet. Die Exponate umfassen eine Vielfalt an Tellern, Vasen und Skulpturen, die sich in erster Linie durch ihre prächtigen Farben und Formen auszeichnen. Wie auch in den Gemälden Chagalls dominieren in seinen Keramiken Themen wie Tiere, Liebespaare und biblische Motive. Dennoch wartet die Balinger Ausstellung mit einer Überraschung auf, da das skulpturale Werk Marc Chagalls bisher in der Öffentlichkeit nur selten gezeigt wurde. Die letzte Ausstellung eines Teils seiner Keramiken fand im Rahmen einer Retrospektive 1969/70 im Grand Palais in Paris statt. Im Frühjahr 2003 widmete das Grand Palais dem Künstler nach 33 Jahren erstmals wieder eine bedeutende Ausstellung. Von dem dadurch geweckten Publikumsinteresse für Chagall erhofft sich die Stadthalle Balingen eine Werbewirkung, die hohe Besucherzahlen bescheren dürfte.

Chagall returned to Russia during the war, settling in Vitebsk, where he was appointed Commissar for Art. He founded the Vitebsk Popular Art School and directed it until disagreements with the Suprematists resulted in his resignation in 1920. He moved to Moscow and executed his first stage designs for the State Jewish Chamber Theater there. After a sojourn in Berlin Chagall returned to Paris in 1923 and met Ambroise Vollard. His first retrospective took place in 1924 at the Galerie Barbazanges-Hodebert, Paris. During the 1930s he traveled to Palestine, the Netherlands, Spain, Poland, and Italy. In 1933 the Kunsthalle Basel held a major retrospective of his work. During World War II Chagall fled to the United States. The Museum of Modern Art, New York, gave him a retrospective in 1946. He settled permanently in France in 1948 and exhibited in Paris, Amsterdam, and London. During 1951 he visited Israel and executed his first sculptures. The following year the artist traveled in Greece and Italy. In 1962 he designed windows for the synagogue of the Hadassah Medical Center near Jerusalem and the cathedral at Metz. He designed a ceiling for Opéra in Paris in 1964 and murals for the Metropolitan Opera House, New York, in 1965.

Marc Chagall
Marc Chagall was at odds with the century in which he lived. Despite this, Chagall's reputation is now secure as one of the most critically acclaimed and popular artists of the century. In an age of science and reason, Chagall defied these prevailing standards by seducing the viewer through the illogical inventiveness of his subject matter and his dazzling use of color. Chagall's popularity, in part, is due to his art being resistant to over-intellectualization which is the fate of so much art in the past century. Chagall himself rejected being labeled and steadfastly wished his art to be unaligned with the major art movements of the century. Chagall thought himself at the opposite of Picasso . He said, "Picasso painted with his belly and me, I paint with my heart."1 In this sense, one could say of the great artists of the school of Paris that Matisse painted with his sense of propriety, Braque with his sense of order, Gris with his sense of design, Leger with his workingman's logic, Modigliani with his sensuality, Miro with his subconscious, and Giacometti with his pathos. But it is emphatically Chagall who painted with his heart on his sleeve. Charles Marq, who worked in stained glass for Chagall, wrote: "Chagall had that very sentimental streak; he was a simple man, very simple. There again, there is always the inner world and the outer world. He was so simple, I often saw him cry while he was working. He was extremely demanding and so was I. He used to say, "Let's go, no fooling around." He was a very good man too, but he couldn't accept people talking about art in a way that didn't match his ideal and his vision. Then he could be really hard-nosed."2
