Collection: Tamara De Lempicka

Tamara de Lempicka’s cosmopolitan portraits are imbued with the opulence and liberated boldness of the années folles: the golden age that overtook Europe in the 1920s and 30s.

Rendered in sleek lines, vibrant metallic hues and geometric forms, her artworks came to epitomize the aesthetic of the Machine Age. Lempicka navigated a turbulent and peripatetic life that, despite its obstacles, afforded her remarkable freedom; she embraced her many lovers, her art, and her international pursuits with equal fervor. This exhibition offers a window into Lempicka’s world, seamlessly intertwining her arresting portraits with the design, jewelry, photography, and machinery of the period on which she left an indelible mark, and in turn, strongly influenced her oeuvre.
