Chagall, Lissitzky, Malevich. Russian Avant-Garde in Vitebsk (1918-1922)

K. Malevich. Supremus No. 58. 1916. Oil on canvas. 70,5 x 79,5. The State Russian Museum
28 March 2018—16 July 2018
The exhibition devoted by the Centre Pompidou to the Russian avant-garde between 1918 and 1922 focuses on the work of three of its iconic figures: Marc Chagall, El Lissitzky and Kazimir Malevich. It also presents works by teachers and students of the Vitebsk art school founded in 1918 by Chagall: Vera Ermolayeva, Nikolay Suetin, Ilya Chashnik, Lazar Khidekel and David Yakerson.

Through 250 works and documents never seen together before, this event sheds light for the first time on the post-revolutionary years during which the history of art was written in Vitebsk, a long way from Russia's big cities.
