Card dated January 24, 1962: “Vava” refers to the 4-lb loaf of Polish rye bread Felix Rozen sent to the Chagall couple, from Warsaw, after they received him at their house in Saint-Paul-de-Vence (the story is told in Rozen by Rozen).
Felix Rozen’s estate entrusted the Kandinsky Library at the Pompidou Center in Paris with its personal and professional archives (correspondence, notes, documentary files, press clippings, ephemera, posters, photographs, soundtracks and video). “The Holdings allow us to document each stage of the artist’s career and to understand his biographical journey in its historical dimension,” explains Fanny Lautissier, in charge of processing the Archives.
