Cindi Di Marzo reviews the
Jewish Museum show
Chagall: Love, War and Exile. It's on view through February and certainly worth a visit...or two. Di Marzo effectively places Chagall's work in the historical and cultural tradition...
Chagall was steeped in a Yiddish storytelling tradition that conflates time and place, day and night, animals and humans, dream life and real life
