Marc Chagall was an early Russian Jewish artist who lived between 1887 and 1985. Whereas, David Friedman is a modern day artist currently working in the genre.

Marc Chagall is one artist in this genre. Born Moishe Shagal on July 6, 1887, a Russian Jew, the artist lived well into old age until 1985, something that was quite unusual at the time. The artist left quite a catalog of works including stained glass and expressionist paintings along and cubism. Currently, there are Chagall works being housed in museums and galleries around the globe.

To better comprehend the work of Chagall and others working in this area, an individual must first understand what inspires this type work. In the case of Chagall, it is the message found in the ideology of the Kabbalah. The Kabbalah provides information and insight with regards to ancient mystical teachings.

As most often work in this genre is related to the teachings of the Kabbalah, themes often include the Cosmos, Cosmology, Fractals, Eternity, Sacred Geometry, the 42 letters which reflect the names of God and the Tree of Life. In addition, as teachings use analogies such as mountains, rivers and streams, these can also be found in this form of inspired art.

The popular website Pinterest host a number of paintings and prints by Marc Chagall. While some are only available for viewing, others are available for purchase. In addition, there are a number of products which feature works by Chagall such as magnets and other items available on websites such as Amazon and Wish.

When looking to view works by Chagall in person, there are several galleries in the Union Square district of San Francisco, California which host a number of paintings and prints. In addition, several works by Chagall can be found at the San Francisco Modern Art Museum in the permanent collection. In fact, gallery owners often choose to feature Chagall in window displays on a regular basis as the dramatic color and light make the pieces quite inviting.

Individuals interested in checking out newer artists working in the genre may want to check out the Kosmic-Kaballah website. The website features newer pieces which were inspired by the teachings and ancient wisdom of the Kabbalah. While akin to Chagall, the artist, David Friedman, takes a more modern approach using canvas and print formats to express a number of themes and ideas found in the teachings.

Whether seeking to acquire a painting by Chagall, a stained glass window or peruse the more modern paintings of Friedman, most works are breathtaking.
