TAMARA DE LEMPICKA

A landmark retrospective on the Art Deco painter exploring her intersectional identities     
Tamara de Lempicka (1894–1980)  the “Baroness with a Brush ” is often cast as one of Art Deco’s
most celebrated artists  though her work transcends categorization  incorporating elements of
Cubism and Neoclassicism in a distinctive  sensuous blend of form and function. Lempicka’s
paintings  including a self-portrait as the driver of a sleek green Bugatti  often depict
dazzling  self-assured women  exuding elegance and transgressive sexuality while combining the
modern with the classical.     This gorgeous survey presents the full arc of Lempicka’s career
in the context of her life and her evolving identity  including her Polish and Russian origins
her marriages and other relationships  and her time in France  Italy  and the United States.
This book unfolds chronologically through three sections that mark the stages of the artist’s
life and the evolution of her artistic style  with particular focus on her Jewish heritage  her
expression of gender  and her sexuality.     Published in association with the Fine Arts
