(Previously scheduled From Saturday November 16th to Monday April 27th except on Tuesday) Exposition. New date !Sur la terre des dieux. Marc Chagall et le monde grec / In the Land of the Gods. Marc Chagall and the Greek world 
In the Land of the Gods. Marc Chagall and the Greek worldIn the early fifties, Marc Chagall accepted the proposal of his friend, the publisher Tériade, to illustrate Daphnis and Chloe, a pastoral prose romance from the 2nd century AD, set on the Greek island of Lesbos. To immerse himself in the environment of this ancient story, Marc Chagall made two trips to Greece, in 1952 and 1954. He visited Athens, Delphi, Olympia, Nafplio and the island of Poros. The discovery of these sites was a revelation: a new universe opened up to him. The artist found in Greece the cradle of a civilization that inspired the entire Mediterranean world, a "land of the gods" that echoed the gentle way of life of the French Riviera where he settled after the war.. Fascinated by the myths and ancient texts associated with the Hellenic land -Daphnis and Chloeby Longus, Homer's Odyssey-Marc Chagall produced illustrated books, paintings, gouaches, ceramics, sets and costumes for the Opera and also monumental mosaics. From the Greece he experienced to the Greece of his dreams, he appropriated this world that would nurture his work until the end of his life.. |

From Saturday October 10th 2020 to Monday January 11th 2021 except on Tuesday
(Previously scheduled Until Monday 21st September except on Tuesday) Exposition. New date !De Couleur et d'encre. Chagall et les revues d'art 
Le marchand-éditeur Ambroise Vollard lui offre ainsi l'opportunité de réaliser des illustrations pour les ouvrages Les Âmes mortes de Nicolas Gogol (1923-1927) et Les Fables de Jean de la Fontaine (1926-1928). Dans les années 1950 et 1960, l'éditeur Tériade poursuivra ces projets et permettra leur aboutissement. A partir des années 1920 et durant plusieurs décennies, les collaborations de Marc Chagall à des revues d'art françaises et européennes se multiplient, témoignant de son intérêt pour cesupport. Cette exposition se propose d'explorer le lien unissant Marc Chagall aux revues d'art, en analysant lanature de ses contributions graphiques et littéraires. Une occasion unique de découvrir une série de documents tout à fait inédits, issus en partie de la bibliothèque personnelle de l'artiste (dessins, revues originales, essais, lettres, archives). Cette exposition est organisée par la Réunion des musées nationaux - Grand Palais et les musées nationaux du XXe siècle des Alpes-Maritimes. Elle donnera lieu à l'édition d'un catalogue.. |
