Press Release

DE SARTHE is pleased to announce Marc Chagall: Dreaming in Color, a captivating exhibition of paintings and vibrant original works on paper by the legendary modernist Marc Chagall (1887-1985). The exhibition will be on view from November 6 to December 13, offering a rare and intimate look into the artist’s poetic and dreamlike universe.

Marc Chagall: Dreaming in Color brings together a curated selection of works that showcase Chagall’s unique visual language, where memory, folklore, and fantasy coalesce. This exhibition highlights the artist’s masterful use of color and line with works dated from 1950 to 1984. The collection features a range of paintings and original works on paper, where Chagall’s signature motifs, floating lovers, whimsical animals and nostalgic village scenes, come to life in a symphony of exuberant color.

“Chagall’s ability to convey profound emotion and narrative through color is unparalleled,” said Pascal de Sarthe, founder of DE SARTHE. “This exhibition focuses on the works where his imagination was most immediate and unbridled. To experience a Chagall is to step into a dream, and these works offer a particularly direct and poignant window into his world. We are thrilled to present this collection to our audience in Hong Kong.”

Born in the Belarusian village of Vitebsk, Chagall transformed the memories of his youth and his experiences across Europe into a unique visual language. His work, which synthesized the avant-garde movements of his time, remains a testament to the power of love, faith, and the resilience of the human spirit, themes that resonate as powerfully today as they did in the 20th century.

About the Artist

Marc Chagall was a pioneering modernist whose vividly dreamlike paintings and stained glass fused folklore, religion, and memory into a uniquely lyrical visual language. Blending elements of Cubism, Symbolism, and Fauvism with his Russian-Jewish heritage, he became one of the defining artistic voices of the 20th century.
