I Am Marc Chagall.
I Am Marc Chagall. Bimba Landmann and Marc Chagall. Grand Rapids,
MI: Eerdmans Publishing Co., 2006. Illus., hardcover, 40 pp., $18.00.
In this poetic first-person narrative, Marc Chagall's unique
vision is represented by large spreads and vibrant mixed-media images.
Cut-paper characters, corrugated cardboard architecture, reproductions
of his paintings, and dried flowers are just a few of the materials used
to create energetic theatrical settings. As the text offers anecdotal
episodes, these visuals depict an engrossing tale of artistic evolution
that brings us closer to Chagall's magical insights.
