BIOGRAFIA:
Tamara
de Lempicka (1898 - 1980 )
Pintora Polaca
Tamara
deLempicka is perhaps the most famous painter of the art deco
period. She was born in Poland and moved to Russia where she
lived until the Bolsheviks arrested her husband during the Russian
revolution. She secured his release and they fled to Paris.
there she learned to paint, enrolling at the Academie de la
Grand Chaumiere and studying privately. She was quite a prolific
artist (in part facilitated by her spare simple style) and was
much sought after as a portrait artist. If you are interested
in learning more about Tamara deLempicka I highly recommend
Passion by Design by her daughter, Kizette deLempicka-Foxhall.
