MORE THAN 120 works are brought together for this overdue retrospective on art deco-era painter Tamara de Lempicka. Although her collecting fans include Madonna, who featured her art on a recent tour, Lempicka remains a somewhat obscure modernist who merged elements of Cubism with the streamlined aesthetic of the early twentieth century for lushly hued portraits, nudes, and still lifes. After debuting at the de Young Museum in San Francisco, the show will travel to the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston. famsf.org
Tamara de Lempicka will be on view at the de Young Museum in San Francisco, California, until February 9, 2025. Then it will open at the Museum of Fine Arts in Houston, Texas, on March 9, 2024.
