Appreciation of Western Art. After more than 60 lessons, I remembered one person-Mark Chagall. Some people call him Chagall because of translation problems.
know him, start with the picture below.
"Birthday", this is his first work I have seen. At first glance, it is unknown, so it is quite scary. What is this? How could the neck twist like this, is it a ghost? But after listening to the explanation, I knew that from now on, the three words "Chagall" should not be erased from my mind.
This day is Chagall’s birthday. Her fiancee Bella went to see him with flowers and pastries in her hand. When Bella walked lightly into the studio, Chagall was moved by the sudden surprise. He was so happy that he was so happy to fly. , Turned around and kissed his fiancee affectionately. He painted such a picture and such a mood. The combination of large areas of red and black skirts and pants, tablecloth colors, and green tops is warm and healing. He uses a dreamlike technique to express the love and happiness of lovers.
After reading this painting, I’m thinking about it. I have learned more than 60 lessons. From the source to modern times, no painter loves his wife so much. The most valuable thing is that a painting is a lifetime. Chagall, he is the most special one, how could he forget it!
Appreciation of the painting:
(1)
. This picture is called "Walk". The picture shows Chagall raising his arms high and pulling his beloved wife Bella in the air. The colors are bright, and the simplicity is eternal. This was painted by them three years after they were married. They were immersed in the happiness of incomparable love, and their faces were full of sweetness.
Chagall once said: "As long as the window is opened, she will appear here, bringing the blue sky, love and flowers. From ancient times until today, she wears a white dress and a white dress or a black dress and a black dress. My paintings illuminate my artistic path."
(2)
. This painting is called "In a Small Town". At that time, Russia was hunting and killing Jews. Chagall was forced to flee to Paris with his wife due to the political environment at the time. painting. But he loves his hometown very much, so he used this dreamy technique to paint his beautiful hometown and his gentle wife. The most precious and precious things in his life are in this painting. This is The most beautiful dream of his life.
When we talk about "homesickness", when will you fall in love with your hometown and linger in your dreams? It’s when you left her and it’s hard to see her. You may only see her bad side when you stay at home every day. After Chagall started a life of escape, she never returned to her hometown. The Jews were persecuted, and only a few hundred survived from the hundreds of thousands. Can you imagine the psychological harm this would cause him?

This painting is called "Bride" and was created in 1950. At that time, his beloved wife Bella had died of illness in the United States for 6 years. This painting looks sad and warm, with many complex feelings intertwined, red gifts, white veils, goats playing the violin, fishes playing drums, Chagall tightly hugging Bella, immersed in happy love In order to forget the suffering of the world.
In reality, she lost her favorite Bella, but in her dream or in his spiritual world, Bella never left. For the rest of his life, he and Bella have been in love with Bella in dreams and paintings, as if they never left.
Chagall and Bella:
Why does this couple have such a deep love?
Chagall and Bella are both Jews, their two childhood sweethearts, like each other,But their love is not favored by Bella’s parents. They do not allow their daughter to interact with Chagall because he is only a poor painter. Bella was born into a Jewish merchant family and is a rich lady, but Bella doesn’t care about this, she ignores her parents’ opposition , Resolutely married Chagall.
In fact, they did not live a happy life like a fairy tale after they got married. They spent their entire lives in displacement, and finally Bella died of illness in the United States. Chagall has experienced two world wars and the Holocaust of the Jews by the Nazis, so he will continue to flee with his wife. He has been creating in suffering. However, there are no persecutions, complaints, and pains in his paintings. There are only sweet, warm, peaceful, and healing things. Therefore, people say that he is "Chagall who believes in love and beauty all his life". He does not paint sadness, but chooses to use Dreams heal reality, what he always presents to the world is love and beauty.
I think this is the reason Bella loves Chagall, he has the ability to create happiness. And Bella's love gave him the most inspiration and support for his artistic creation.
One night I listened to teacher Jiang Xun’s interpretation of a section of "A Dream of Red Mansions", and I heard tears lingering. He said that Baoyu and Shi Xiangyun both have a unicorn. Isn't this a pair? Daiyu was uneasy, so she quietly walked to Baoyu’s residence to find out. She walked under the window and heard Shi Xiangyun in the room persuading Baoyu to read some books on economic politics. Baoyu said firmly in her eyes, Lin My sister would not say such a thing, if he said the same, I would have sex with her. This is where Daiyu outside the window is still entering, talking about falsehood and reality, everything is at ease, everything is silent.
Love is like this. It’s not that you love me and I love you. It’s not a expensive gift to buy on a holiday. Sometimes true love can’t be said. It’s rare to meet someone who knows people without saying anything! Chagall understands Bella's intentions for him, so he cherishes it very much and wanders all his life, only love is you. Bella understands the talent of Chagall, so she throws away glory and goes with love. How does
face the suffering in life?
has a classic film "A Beautiful Life", which is about a Jewish father and son sent to a Nazi concentration camp. The father uses his imagination to make up a lie. He uses a game to protect the child’s body and mind and helps with a beautiful lie. The child survived, and he was shot. Until all the Jewish compatriots in the concentration camp were killed, until the last moment the child didn’t understand what was going on. He only knew that he played a game and finally he got a gift. His young mind was still healthy and he was not. War damage.
Chagall and this father really imagined that he did not paint the most tragic facts such as wars, massacres, escapes, etc., and always painted the most beautiful things that touched people’s hearts. What he has been protecting is those of us who watch paintings. Let us no longer remember the sufferings again and again, but learn to laugh at life. I think this is the greatness of Chagall, the greatest artistic value he left us, and the greatest life inspiration for us.
Life will not be so complete and smooth. There are always times when you are happy and when you are in pain, but you are already in suffering. How do you face it? There is a philosophy of life here, and what is embodied here is the wisdom of life. You always have to find an outlet for life.
For Chagall, that outlet is Bella, his love of painting, and his optimistic attitude towards life.
What about us, have we found the exit of our lives?
I like Chagall, this spoiled wife, and I like this great artist who warms the world with painting.
Thanks for knowing him.
