La Joie Familaie by Marc Chagall
Artist
He was born on the 6th July 1887 and died on 28th March 1985.
Marc composed his images based on emotional and poetic associations, rather than on rules of pictorial logic.
In later years, he went on to painting stained glass windows which he completed all around the world
With many of his pieces it was personal to his life as well as others around him.
Art
The present work is titled La Famille. Chagall depicts a woman sitting in the outdoors during Autumn, holding her young child to her breast. The father smiles down at them both, his arm wrapped around the mother of his child. The colors are warm and earthy, dominated by the red leaves that have fallen from the tree in the background. The scene displays Chagall’s classic dream-like quality, with a house sitting precariously atop the tree while a chicken soars in the air behind the family.
He reflected an awareness of artistic movements such as Expressionism, Cubism, and even abstraction
La Joie is a series of art works that Chagall worked on in the later stages of his life.
Some critics sometimes complained of facile sentiments(an easy attitude), uneven quality, and an excessive repetition of motifs in the artist’s large total output, there is agreement that at its best it reached a level of visual metaphor seldom attempted in modern art.
We decided on doing the 7 stages of grief about the loss of a child/ a sibling. Each scene is a different stage of grief, we start off with denial, then anger, then depression, reconstruction and then the final one is acceptance
Through each scene we wear the colours of our stage of grief.
We will change the main colour scheme for each piece to show our stages of grief.
