Tamara de Lempicka (1898-1980)
Portrait of the Duchess de la Salle, 1925
Art Deco style...
Director #RachelChavkin stood by #Lempicka, saying that the #musical received a #mixed reception on #Broadway because of #misogyny in #theater narratives. “The point was genuinely missed by many people because they didn’t know how to watch it," she said.

Dans les Années folles, la chanteuse Suzy Solidor règne sur les nuits parisiennes, attirant les regards... et les pinceaux. Notamment ceux de Tamara de #Lempicka. Ensemble, elles vont créer bien plus qu’un portrait : une œuvre manifeste d’émancipation. ⬇️
De Montmartre à Montparnasse, le #MuséedeMontmartre fait revivre avec succès la cosmopolite effervescence artistique de l'Ecole de Paris. L'exposition est l'occasion de découvrir 130 œuvres de la collection polonaise de #MarekRoefler : #Zadkine #Lempicka #Kisling #Marcoussis #Halicka etc. A voir !
A framed artwork, a study of Tamara de Lempicka's Green Bugatti - a colored pencil drawing of a blonde woman wearing a Grey driver's cap from the 20s a Grey scarf and her golden gloved hand resting on the black steering wheel, the green door frame visible.
I finally declared my Lempicka study finished.
Y'all. I am so happy!
This took me over a year - not just the hours of work but bc I'd get scared I'd ruin it so I'd leave it untouched for months.

Années 1920, #Paris. La #peintre Tamara de #Lempicka se promène au bois de #Boulogne quand quelque chose l’intrigue : tous les passants ne peuvent s’empêcher de regarder une mystérieuse inconnue… Que peut-elle avoir de si remarquable ?
This young lovely in her electric green dress, oversized white hat and sleek white gloves (am I the only one who remembers wearing white gloves as a child??) is the epitome of Jazz Age female sophistication: she is self-assured, independent and a touch inaccessible. Tamara de Lempicka is not painting a specific person here (although there is always speculation that the model was one of her lovers) but is rather presenting an ideal. Lempicka’s fascination with Cubism and Art Deco is apparent in her architectural handling of the background and of the female figure itself. The green fabric of the dress is painted as a structure instead of detailed as a fabric. Like virtually all of Lempicka’s figures – both female and male – the “Young Lady with Gloves” oozes sensuality. She strikes a detached pose by not looking out at the viewer. She is aloof and perfect.

TAMARA DE LEMPICKA (1894 - 1980), “Young Lady with Gloves”, 1927. Centre Pompidou, Paris, France.
Behold the modern woman of the 1920s!
#arthistory #art #RoaringTwenties #Lempicka
Created in Paris after her escape from the Russian Revolution, "Jeune fille en vert" embodies Tamara de Lempicka’s fusion of Cubist geometry and Art Deco glamour. Born Tamara Górska in Warsaw in 1898, she rebuilt her life and name in exile, studying with Maurice Denis and André Lhote. By the late 1920s, she was painting aristocrats, actresses, and lovers with lacquered precision with her brush crafting a visual language of female autonomy. We see a light-skinned young woman in a vivid green satin dress from the waist up, turned three-quarters left beneath a wide white hat. Honey-blond curls arc along her cheek as she lowers the brim with her right hand in a white glove; her left gloved hand seemingly reaches out at her side, fingers slightly splayed. The dress clings and ripples in high-gloss folds; a sheer green scarf runs diagonally across her chest and bursts behind her right shoulder as a large, crisp bow. Hard-edged light carves the planes of her face and arms, leaving a clean crescent shadow under the hat and deep seams in the satin. Her warm red lips and sidelong gaze are poised and self-possessed. A shallow backdrop of angled gray panels suggests an urban or stage-like space. Openly bisexual, Lempicka moved through Paris’s queer avant-garde, depicting women with unapologetic sensuality. “I live life in the margins of society,” she said, defying norms of gender and respectability. Though not a declared feminist, her career embodied feminist practice: financially independent, self-invented, and commanding male-dominated circles through talent and style. This anonymous woman in green is simultaneously a muse, mirror, and mask as Lempicka distilled the paradox she lived: desire bound in discipline, beauty shaped into power.

"Acuérdate de mí si llegan ‘la indolencia,
el hastío, el total abandono…
Quédate en mis heridas, cúrame la tristeza.
No podré regalarte las flores de la duda
Solo poseo un verso torpemente rimado
Un pasado perdido, una fruta madura".

#Lempicka thought #Picasso's #Cubism was ugly, refusing to […]
Re-listening to the #Lempicka original broadway cast recording, and honestly this musical deserves another chance. The show wasn't ready for Broadway, but the score is mostly strong, and it has potential for a new definitive version in the future (maybe in smaller regional theatres?)
Definite shades of #Lempicka don't you think? Deliberate?
Very well executed if so.

Photo of Lety and the Creature Mastodon stuffed toy standing in front of the Tamara de Lempicka exhibition's window display at de Young Museum. From top to bottom, Lety is seen wearing a tight gray sweater with slits at the shoulder, a floral pink thigh-high skirt, black leggings, and brown boots. She's standing with her back to the dark, ten-foot-tall glass walls of the museum, between “TAMARA DE LEMPICKA” in giant signage and a bust cropping of Lempicka's “Young Woman in Green” with “Oct 12, 2024 - Feb 9, 2025” printed onto the corner. Lety's holding the Creature in front of her lap as she smiles at the camera. Both she and the Creature have a little “Young Woman in Green” sticker on their chests as proof of entry to the exhibit.
Very grateful to have gone to the Tamara de Lempicka exhibition at the de Young on its closing day.

Review | Tamara de Lempicka’s art deco paintings are all style. Is that enough? - The Washington Post
I went to see this exhibit and loved it. This reviewer has some agenda that I don’t relate to at all, but interesting all the same.

Lempicka's attraction to glamour and sensual elegance is typified in Portrait d'Ira P., the artist's close friend and purported lover. Draped in a clinging white satin gown, Ira leans seductively against the edge of the picture plane holding a bouquet of calla lilies and a billowing red shawl which echos her vermillion lips and fingernails. In portraiture, flowers have often served as a symbol of the romantic appeal and erotic allure of the sitter. Indeed, Ira's lily-white dress accentuates her soft form, the outline of her navel and belly plainly visible as though she were nude. She appears sexy yet aloof. Ira's body turns toward the viewer, but her eyes look elsewhere, seemingly unaware of the voyeuristic gaze that her pose invites. Ira P. is as classically beautiful and exotic as the flowers she holds and like the flowers, she too is in full bloom. Lempicka’s bold, stylized figures have become synonymous with the 1920s, an era characterized by opulence, sophistication, and youthful optimism. She incorporates Art Deco design elements, like geometric facets, tonal contrasts, and city architecture framing idealized faces and flowing, fashionable garments. The artist’s early life has long been a source of fascination. For years, she was thought to have been born Tamara Rozalia Gurwik-Górska in 1898, but recent research reveals she was born Tamara Rosa Hurwitz in 1894. She moved to Saint Petersburg, where she married prominent Polish lawyer Tadeusz Łempicki, and then traveled to Paris, where she studied painting. By 1928, Lempicka became the mistress of Baron Raoul Kuffner de Dioszegh, a wealthy art collector, and she divorced from Łempicki in 1929. When Kuffner’s wife died, the artist married Kuffner, and became known in the press as “The Baroness with a Brush.” The couple moved to the U.S. in 1939, and a 1960s revival of Art Deco style ushered in a comeback. She eventually moved to Mexico in 1974, where she died in 1980.

The Communiant mpresented at the Salon d'Automne in 1928 and at the Salon des Indépendants in 1929, obtained a bronze medal at the Salon de Poznań in 1929. Tamara de Lempicka was particularly keen on this distinction: in 1976, when she was one of the few artists of her generation to express the wish that the six works (Kizette on the balcony, 1927, AM 1976-1133; Portrait of Baron Raoul Kuffner, 1932, AM 1976-911, that of her husband and two late still lifes that complete the purchase of the State in 1932 of Jeune fille en vert, 1927, JP 557 P), which she then gave to the National Museum of Modern Art were exclusively intended for the future "Centre Beaubourg", the only indication she issued on La Communiante was this Polish reward. The years of the creation of the Pompidou Center correspond to a return of the artist to the French scene who rediscovered it after its American eclipse that began in 1939. The first post-war retrospective, in 1961, went rather unnoticed. The one organized in 1972 by the Luxembourg gallery ("Tamara de Lempicka from 1925 to 1935") confirms the enthusiasm of a certain public and part of the critics eager for "Art Deco", and reconnects with the broken thread of the late 1930s. Despite the ecstatic and sulpic piety of La Communiante (whose model was the artist's daughter, Kizette, born in 1919), this painting is at the heart of the iconographic and worldly device that, between 1925 and 1930, founded the success of Tamara de Lempicka. His paintings embody the fragile alchemy of a decadent society and, in their ambiguous and icy perfection, they are still the disturbing banners of a world that was rushing into war and that it had the foresight to leave.
