In 1986 in Paris, Bourdelle Museum organized an exhibition entitled "Blatas and the Paris School. What kind of artist (admit it, we Glasha he was completely ignorant to how she accidentally found a catalog of the exhibition)?
Along the way, surprised that Arbit Blatas, apparently, was completely unconnected with the interests of the Russian market iskuusstva (us-what? We private people with us and demand does not exist) and we can argue chrto in the not too distant time, this will be corrected nespravedlivot .

As explained in the text of the catalog, Arbit Blatas (1908-1999) was a native of Lithuania, from a family of Russian Jews. In France, he came from Germany, where his father, a merchant of musical instruments, poslale him to study painting. Immediately after his arrival he met and became friends with artists working in Paris, Russian-Soutine, Lipschitz Zadkine, Flint, Chagall - and non-Russian - Bonnard, Vuillard, Picasso, Derain, Vlaminck, Dufy, Marquet, Matisse, Utrillo - origin, and that is our top priority, he wrote, molded, cast their portraits - so he entered the School of Paris ".

During the war years Blatas had to leave in the U.S., after the liberation of France, he then lived in New York, then in Paris, and regularly exhibited in major galleries in Paris, New York and London.
