Litvak Art in the Context of the Ecole de Paris

This book is a study of the contribution make by Litvaks, i.e. Jews from the cultural space of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, to the famous École de Paris. Litvak graduates from various art schools in Vilnius, Kaunas, and Viciebsk invaded the main center of Western modern art during the second wave of the École de Paris and formed the nucleus of this school. For this reason, art critics have referred to the second wave of the École de Paris as the École juive, i.e. the Jewish School. The main focus of this book is on the contributions made by Soutine, Chagall, Kikoïne, Krémègne, Band, Arbit Blatas, Indenbaum, Lipchitz, Zadkine, Segall, and other Litvak painters and sculptors to the Paris School. This book examines the influence that the creative sources, aesthetic attitudes, environment, Jewish traditions, and museum studies of these artists had on their style and on the characteristics of their plastic language.
