1893 -1943 · Expressionism of the School of Paris
Born in 1893 in Smilavitchi, in the Russian Empire, Chaïm Soutine studied in Minsk then in Vilnius before moving to Paris in 1913. At La Ruche, he shared the precarious life of Montparnasse artists and became particularly involved with Amedeo Modigliani. Between 1919 and 1922, Céret's landscapes freed up a tense pictorial writing, made up of tilted perspectives and impasto. The support of the American collector Albert C. Barnes then gave him decisive recognition. Portraits of pastry chefs, altar boys, trees and carcasses create a work where painting seems to transform each motif from the inside.
