The govt moved quickly to construct a permanent home, and Nice, where Chagall had made his home, offered land for this purpose. Forward to 1973 and the Musée Chagall, the only museum dedicated to a living artist at the time, was inaugurated on Chagall's 87th birthday (2/5)
In 1966 the Louvre, dedicated to pre-modern art, exhibited 'The Biblical Message', a cycle of 17 huge religious paintings evoking Old Testament events, in homage to the brilliant Jewish Russian immigrant artist Marc Chagall who had just donated the works to the French state (1/5)

(4/4) As the struggle of women in Iran unfolds before us today with the horrific events of the last 6 months or so, never has an exhibition been more timely or pertinent. Hugely recommended, and it's free at @BarbicanCentre

(2/4) Sohelia grew up in Iran pre-1979 revolution. 30 or so influential Iranian feminist icons of the era are depicted, each one silenced, arrested, imprisoned, exiled, or worse by the new autocratic regime after the revolution (women are still not allowed to sing in public).
This is a solid 5 star 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 exhibition. Get to the @royalacademy for 'Milton Avery: American Colourist' before it closes on Sunday!
