Fresco, toccante e individuale come i suoi dipinti' Lucy Beckett, TLS, Libri dell'anno 2018 'Ecco la mia anima. Cercatemi qui; eccomi, ecco i miei quadri, le mie radici' Marc Chagall, uno degli artisti più popolari del ventesimo secolo, è cresciuto in una comunità ebraico-russa unita e vivace, figlio di un venditore di aringhe. Nella sua autobiografia colorata e onirica, scritta quando stava per lasciare definitivamente la sua terra natale nel 1922, riporta vividamente in vita i ricordi e i luoghi che hanno alimentato la sua opera unica, dalla sua infanzia nello shtetl alla Russia rivoluzionaria e alla Parigi della Belle Èpoque. Ricco delle suggestive illustrazioni di Chagall, My Life è caldo, gioioso e umano come la sua arte. "Chagall scrive in modo altrettanto bizzarro quanto dipinge: amorevolmente per gli altri, con umorismo e amorevolmente per se stesso" Daily Mail "Chiunque ami i dipinti di Chagall apprezzerà questo libro: l'opera di un artista popolare incontaminato e irreprensibile" Evening Standard.

Marc Chagall was born in White Russia and brought up in the Jewish community of Witebsk. He was a prolific artist, producing whimsical, dream-like paintings, stained glass windows, stage sets, ceramics and tapestries. He studied art in St Petersburg and he became Commissar of Arts in Witebsk after the Bolshevik Revolution. In 1923 he settled in Paris and, apart from evacuating to New York during the Second World War, he lived in France until his death in 1985. In the 1950s, Picasso predicted that 'Chagall will be the only painter left who understands what colour really is'.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Marc Chagall's colourful, hilarious, dream-like autobiographyChagall was born in Witebsk in White Russia, the son of a herring merchant who lived opposite a laundress and a chimney sweep. After the Revolution, while waiting for emigration papers, he wrote his autobiography at the age of 34.My Life reads like one of Chagall's paintings- emotional, fragmentary, humorous, colourful and dream-like, soaked in nostalgia for Jewish small-town society, familiar to us from The Fiddler on the Roof. It combines a colourist's eye for detail, an artist's passion for life, a satirical sense of humour with a backdrop of Belle poque Paris and revolutionary Russia. The character sketches are magnificent.Chagall produced 50 illustrations which accompany the text. The first English translation of My Life was published in 1965 and it has been in print ever since.
