The
Berggruen Collection (Sammlung Berggruen)
MITTE | BERLIN | GERMANY
MAY 20,
2017-MARCH 31, 2018
A one-room
show at the Museum Berggruen is showing works by Marc Chagall from the
Nationalgalerie’s collection. Chagall employed a principle that proved to be a
groundbreaking innovation in modern art, which was also developed at the same
time by such contemporary figures as Henri Matisse: the decorative image.
To mark the
presentation of this collection, the photographer Ulrike Kolb (born 1965) has
visited locations in which Chagall’s pictures decorate both public and private
spaces: whether in the form of an art postcard in a child’s bedroom, a ceiling
decorated in the style of the artist at Café Chagall in Berlin, or an original
in the German President’s office in Schloss Bellevue.
