Demetre H. Chiparus - und der Geist des Art Deco

In den goldenen 20er Jahren in Paris lebend, wurde Demetre Chiparus neben den Strömungen der bildenden Kunst und einem neuen, modernen Frauenbild der Garçonne, ebenso durch die glamourösen Revuen wie sie in den Folies Bèrgere oder dem Moulin Rouge dargeboten wurden beeinflusst. Hier gastierten berühmte Tänzer und Tänzerinnen wie Isadora Duncan oder die Dolly Sisters. Ihre exotischen Kostüme und Tanzposen inspirierten Chiparus zu seinen fragilen und kostbaren chryselephantinen Figuren.
