None. None No current Talk conversations about this book. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() 'The White Crucifixion' narrates his way to his artistic apogee in the Parisian art colony 'The Hive' and his shocking encounters with the 'Suprematist people' back home - the communist myrmidons with their disgusting idealism of communal life and communal thinking - and later the pogroms initiated by the incoming Nazi troops of Germany. The book, not always that easy to read, depicts Chagall as a painter deeply immersed in his Jewish tradition eternalizing it with passion and originality on to canvas. It shows us a man totally devoted to his genius and unalterable in his choice of colours. It's a book that makes you pause for a while. So, four stars. no reviews | add a review
