colony.<\/span> <span class=\"color_15\">Together they chose a site in southern Paris where an apple warehouse stood and had convinced Jean&#8217;s artist friends to come and settle in the <em>area<\/em>. Jean was so persuasive that Robert Couturier, Marcel Gromaire, \u00c9douard Goerg, and Chana Orloff, among others, decided to build their homes and studios there.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"color_15\">Later, the cul-de-sac welcomed other important artists such as Dali, Jean Vilar, Mario Prassinos, Cha\u00efm Soutine, Ana\u00efs Nin, and Henry Miller, who wrote his &#8220;Tropic of Cancer&#8221; there in 1936. <\/span><span class=\"color_15\">Andr\u00e9 Lur\u00e7at would build eight houses in this cul-de-sac, beginning with Jean&#8217;s in 1924.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Chana Orloff, however, asked Auguste Perret, whose portrait she had painted in 1923, to design hers in 1926. It had to be functional, suited to her private and professional life, and, above all, to her work\u2014a <em>workspace<\/em> that would emphasize volume and light. The result was successful; it is today magnificently preserved and curated by her descendants and experts.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #c9b871;\">Tours are provided by the artist&#8217;s expert Eric Justman-Orloff [<a style=\"color: #c9b871;\" href=\"mailto:info@chana-orloff.org\">info@chana-orloff.org<\/a>] by appointment.<br \/>\n<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=&#8221;in_container&#8221;
