Wikipedia
According to Sandqvist, there are three competing aspects in Janco's legacy, which relate to the complexity of his profile: " In Western cultural history Marcel Janco is best known as one of the founding members of Dada in Zurich in 1916.
Regarding the Romanian avant-garde in the interwar period Marcel Hermann Iancu is more known as the spider in the web and as the designer of a great number of Romania's first constructivist buildings [...].
On the other hand, in Israel Marcel Janco is best known as the ' father ' of the artists ' colony of Ein Hod [...] and for his pedagogic achievements in the young Jewish state.
The building was damaged by the 2010 forest fire, but reopened and grew to include a permanent exhibit of Janco's art.
Janco's paintings still have a measurable impact on the contemporary Israeli avant-garde, which is largely divided between the abstractionism he helped introduce and the neorealistic disciples of Michail Grobman and Avraham Ofek.
