UNIVERSALISM OF MARC CHAGALL

Introduction 

The works of Marc Chagall achieve an organic synthesis of art, literature, 

architecture, theater, circus and music. The holistic picture he creates of the 

world involves the participation of different kinds of art, speaking through 

the language of colors, sounds, voices, rhythms, acrobatics and dance. 

Although Chagall’s artistic and literary connections, as well as the images he 

captures of circuses, buffoonery and town squares have been studied in 

detail, the theme of music in his art has not yet received in-depth coverage. 

Furthermore, the representation of musical components in Chagall’s 

paintings aside, conclusions on the senses and meanings in his pictures are 

incomplete. 

 

Study perspectives 

The theme of music runs through the artistic works of Marc Chagall; it 

accompanied the artist throughout his life. Consideration of musical 

iconography in his works reveals the artistic universalism of the personality 

and creativity of the artist, and makes it possible to discover new nuances in 

the relationship between fine arts and music in the 20

th

 century. 



Marc Chagall (1887-1985) is one of  the most mysterious painters of  

the 20


th

 century, affecting the beholder emotionally with his 

phantasmagorical personages, mystic colours and incredible sense of  

soaring. Belonging equally to Russia and France, his home village in Vitebsk 

and Jewish traditions, throughout his long - almost centenary - life, Chagall 

often changed countries, cities and continents, absorbing and creatively 

elaborating on numerous national, technical and stylistic influences. He 

represents a vivid intercultural phenomenon; universal concepts of  the 

macrocosm were implemented in his creative work. As psychologist Erich

Neumann notes, his unification of  male and female origins anticipates the 

double nature of  Chagall’s artistic expression.

 Tatyana Zatsarnaya 



distinguishes the hierotopic character of  space in his works, visualizing the 

vivid, saturated medium of  humans’ internal world.

2

 Natalya Apchinskaya 



highlights the painter’s reproduction of  the integral image of  the world - 

“incessantly in scope and depth, free-chaotic, and yet, at the same time, 

subject to some highly consistent patterns,” through which “the inextricable 

connection between present, past and future is realised.”

Chagall was not only a painter, graphic artist, glass artist and scene 



painter, but also a literary artist. His autobiography My Life; numerous 

articles, essays and lectures included in the book Mark Chagall about Art and 



Culture; poems gathered in the collection The Angel above Roofs; and the text 

for the author’s album of  lithography, Circus, issued from his pen. Thus, 

Chagall was also a memoirist, essayist, publicist and poet, covering various 

genres of  literature. Literary modes of  thinking had a direct impact on the 

artistic creativity of  the “cornflower man,”

4

 filling him with deep content-



richness, multiplicity and symbolism.

5

 Following Andre Breton, who 



declared the triumphal implementation of  metaphor in modern painting 

with Chagall, many researchers state that “poetry found a picturesque form 

in his creativity, became its internal content.”

6

 Aiming to carry out artistic 



missionary work, Chagall codified the ideas of  freedom, miracles, brotherly 

community and the unity of  all as the basis of  his universe.  

Chagall’s creativity presents an organic synthesis of  not only painting 

and literature, but also architecture, theatre, circus and music, making it 

possible to speak of  his artistic universalism. The term “artistic 

universalism” was developed in literary studies, where it is understood as “a 

drive for synthesis at the level of  ‘covering’ reality ... and at the level of  

apprehension of  laws and consistent patterns,”

7

 or “the synthesis of  genres 



or different artistic systems in the creativity of  one author.”

 Olga Studenko 



distinguishes “the universalism of  integrity” (“universalism of  coverage,” 

“universalism-encyclopedism”) and the “universalism of  bases and

 Although Chagall himself repeatedly told, that “literariness” for a painter is an unflattering 



characteristics (Ge 2013), thus dissociating from vulgarly understood narrativeness in 

painting.
