January 1-May 8, 2016 - After a historic meeting in Florence last fall with His Holiness Pope Francis at the iconic Baptistery of Saint John, Marc Chagall’s White Crucifixion returns home to the Art Institute galleries this spring. One of the museum’s most significant works of modern art—and the Pope’s favorite painting—White Crucifixion has become a universally potent symbol of sacrifice and persecution with its blending of Christian and Jewish themes. We welcome the masterpiece back to the galleries with a special presentation celebrating its art historical significance and its continued ability to inspire Chicagoans and people around the world.
