SwissArtGallery · Documented identity
Michel Kikoïne met Chaïm Soutine in a Minsk studio in 1905 and studied with him in Vilnius from 1908. Arriving in Paris in 1912, he continued his studies in Fernand Cormon’s studio, then settled at La Ruche with his wife in 1914. Galerie Chéron hosted his first solo exhibition in 1919. Subsequent exhibitions included Zborowski in 1921 and Bernheim-Jeune in 1923. During the Second World War, he joined his son Jacques Yankel in Toulouse and participated in the group Le Chariot. His interest in colour lithography resulted in the collection Enfants d’Israël in 1953. Frequent stays at La Garoupe late in life produced seascapes. His works are recorded at institutions including the Petit Palais in Geneva.
