MARC CHAGALL (1887-1985). Marc Chagall, born Moishe Shagal, was a Russian and French artist of Jewish ancestry. He is known for his artwork that blends surrealism, Fauvism, and Cubism to depict Jewish folklore and memories of his youth in Vitebsk. He was described by Picasso as having an unparalleled understanding of color and for decades he had been said to be the world's pre-eminent Jewish artist. His most famous works include I and the Village, Paris Through the Window, and La Marie (The Bride).Signed Program. February 11, 1967. New Haven, Connecticut. A program signed Marc Chagall 1967 for his lecture at Yale University. While Chagall is primarily known as a painter, he had a connection to the theater world because of his theatrical designs. The year prior to this lecture, he had completed the murals The Triumph of Music and The Sources of Music for the new Metropolitan Opera House at Lincoln Center. He also designed the sets and costumes for the Mets production of Mozart's The Magic Flute, which premiered in February 1967, the same month as his Yale lecture. Given Chagalls contributions to stage design and his mastery of color theory, the school invited him to speak about the intersection of fine art, stagecraft, and the power of color. Chagall usually resided in France, this program being rare example of him sharing his artistic philosophy with an American academic audience. This program is under a reproduction of his painting I and the Village. The program is professionally framed and in very fine condition.
