Born in 1899 to Russian Aristocrats, Tamara de Lempicka escaped the
Bolsheviks by exchanging her body for freedom, dramatically
beginning a sexual career that included most of the influential men
and women she painted. Her paintings, like the artist herself, glow
with beauty and sexuality. Contemporary critics, however, dismissed
her gorgeously stylised portraits and condemned her scandalous
lifestyle. A resurgence of interest in her work occurred in the
1980s, spurred by such celebrity collectors such as Jack Nicholson,
Barbra Streisand and Madonna.
