今回の展覧会は、ニューヨークから。ユダヤ系の歴史や文化、古典芸術から現代アートなどを扱うジューイッシュ・ミュージアムで開催中の『シャガール、リシツキー、マレーヴィチ:ヴィーツェプスクのロシア・アヴァンギャルド』を紹介。

1890年代から1930年代にかけて興隆したロシアの前衛芸術運動ロシア・アヴァンギャルドのなかでも、1917年に前衛シーンが発達していた小さな町ヴィーツェプスク(現ベラルーシ)にフォーカス。あまり知られていない町ヴィーツェプスクだが、20世紀最大のユダヤ人前衛芸術家マルク・シャガールの故郷である。ヴィーツェプスクにはロシア革命後に設立された小さな美術学校があり(シャガールが学長を務めた)、“20世紀グラフィックデザインの革新者”と呼ばれるエル・リシツキー、そしてただの黒い正方形を“芸術”にした画家のカジミール・マレーヴィチが講師として招致された。小さな町で生まれたロシア・アヴァンギャルドの前衛作品が一堂に会す珍しい機会だ。
