What people say

"He was not Russian. Ossip Zadkine was born and raised in Vitebsk, Belarus just as his fellow countryman Marc Chagall. They knew each other personally. Zadkine became one of the greatest names in Cubist sculpture. This little musée feels more like an artist’s studio rather than a museum, private, intimate, unique and deeply personal. It tells a story. Pls visit, it’s incredible."
