From 1930 to 1935, the interior designer Madeleine Castaing and her husband welcomed him to their summer home, the mansion of Lèves, becoming his patrons, so that Soutine could hold his first exhibition in Chicago in 1935.
When John Kraushaar, Charles's younger brother, joined the business the gallery also began showing modern French painters: Soutine, Matisse, Roualt, Modigliani, Redon, Picasso and other late 19th- and early 20th-century artists.
Then, Soutine made frequent trips between Céret and Cagnes-sur-Mer until 1922.
His work also recalls the resillience and disparate thought of the likes of Motherwell, Morley, Kokoscha and Soutine.
Specialised in painting and sculpture and influenced by Soutine, Willem de Kooning and Bram van Velde, the artist revolutionized painting with “Nieuwe Schilderijen”.
It became famous for supplying art supplies to artists such as Cézanne, Degas, Gauguin, Pissarro, Soutine, Modigliani, Kandinsky, Bonnard, and Picasso.
Zborovski rented a studio in la Ruche for Varlin, where he socialised with Archipenko, Soutine, Chagall and Léger, who also had studios there.
