Chagall, sculptures

Throughout his life, the inventive genius of Marc Chagall (1887-1985) pushed him to explore highly varied artistic techniques, including drawing, painting, engraving, ceramics, mosaics, stained-glass and tapestry. This wide range also includes one of the artist's practices of which the general public is still largely unaware - sculpture. Marc Chagall discovered the practice of sculpture in 1950 when he moved to Vence, on the Côte d'Azur. The artist's first foray into volume was modelling, creating ceramics in various different workshops around the region, including the Madoura studio in Vallauris.
