Chagall Festival at Galerie Michael

Beginning September 15 through the end of October, Rodeo Drive’s Galerie Michael, located on the famous cobblestone section of Two Rodeo Drive, will launch its highly anticipated exhibit that will give art enthusiasts the opportunity to view works on public display for the first time in history (and not seen by anyone in more than 40 years) by Marc Chagall.

Approximately 40 works will be on display and, unlike traditional museum exhibits, the rare pieces will be for sale. 

As one of the most recognized modern masters in fine art, Chagall’s works project an expansive repertory of imagery from the whimsical scenes of Russian folk art to dreamlike worlds described in literature. Chagall’s use of color and form is distinctive—derived partly from Russian expressionists with strong influences from French cubism, suffused with exquisite, poetic inspiration.

To further educate the public about the master artist, Galerie Michael will host a lecture led by Chagall expert, Vivian R. Jacobson, on the September 15 opening at 3 p.m. Space is limited at the event; please RSVP by dialing 310.272.3377.
