"If every life inevitably comes to an end, we must color it with our colors of love and hope during our life."
Marc Chagall

A painter of dreams and imagination, inspired by both the colour of Fauvism and the deconstruction of Cubism, Chagall invented his own symbolism and imposed his very particular style. Inspired throughout his life by Jewish tradition and Russian folklore, oscillating between surrealism and expressionism, his work, famous throughout the world, echoed the turbulence of the twentieth century, in complete independence and with great humanity.
