The True Story of Tamara de Lempicka & The Art of Survival

  • The Palm Theatre 817 Palm Street San Luis Obispo, CA, 93401 United States (map)

A visually stunning and sweeping feature documentary that traces the life and survival of the renowned painter through her powerful paintings – from her rise to international stardom in 1920s Paris, to her move to the United States in 1940, fleeing the rise of fascism, and her revival in the current art market. Tamara de Lempicka was the preeminent Art Deco painter, known for her high-gloss sensual nudes and portraits of high society during the Jazz Age. She was marginalized and gained notoriety for her romantic liaisons with her models and her indulgent, decadent lifestyle, but she was so much more.

Showtimes: Saturday, September 20 at 1:30pm and 4:15pm and Sunday, September 21 at 1:30pm and 4:15pm
