Marc Chagall Exhibition at Gurr Johns Paris Explores Color and the Bible

Gurr Johns, an art advisory firm, is transforming its Paris offices at 62 rue La Boétie into a Marc Chagall exhibition space from October 20 to December 8, 2026. The free show brings together paintings and works on paper centered on color and the Bible. Chagall's compositions, built on false perspectives and blue ideas, interrogate how color operates emotionally. A red may dominate the surface, a sky may resist it, and a winged figure may struggle to find its place. Color shifts in value depending on its neighbors and density. The Bible, which Chagall considered an immense source of poetry, nourished his work for decades, and that thought reaches viewers through color, from painting to illustrated books and stained glass. The exhibition is part of a broader autumn season of Chagall displays across France and Europe. Gurr Johns' Paris office is open Monday to Friday, 10am to 6pm, at 62 rue La Boétie, 75008, near Métro Miromesnil (lines 9 and 13). Admission is free.
