Exhibit de Lempicka
14 x 28 de Lempicka Oil Painting on Canvas
Art within Art Series
This painting took soooo long to complete!
Lempicka is best known for her Art Deco-styled portraits. Sexy, bedroom-eyed women in stylish dress are rendered in haunting poses. Perhaps it was her own dramatic life mirrored in her art. Married twice to wealthy, she moved from her native Poland to Russia, and then to Paris. In 1918, she studied painting at the Academe de la Grand Chaumiere, and was privately tutored by Maurice Denis.

I love de Lempicka. She was way ahead of her time with her work. I thought it
would be fun to do a preparation of a de Lempicka exhibt. Can you imagine
what they go through with hanging an exhibit? Just the care in handling the
work to insure no damage of such large works with frames must be a task
Everything is handles with white gloves as you see here with each person
Everything is handles with white gloves as you see here with each person
handling a painting. Some day I hope to see a "Tamara de Lempicka Exhibit."
Tamara de Lempicka (Łempicka) (May 16, 1898–March 18, 1980), born Maria Górska in Warsaw,
in partitioned Poland was a Polish Art Deco painter and "the first woman artist to be a glamor star."
