Time Out says

One of the most anticipated exhibitions of the year, the most complete Tamara de Lempicka show has finally come to Madrid for the first time, and is on at the Palacio de Gaviria. The Polish artist was the queen of Art Deco in the 1920s and 1930s, and her paintings show off elegant, independent women as well as the glamour and cosmopolitan spirit of the roaring '20s, jazz, promiscuity and drugs.

'Among hundreds of paintings, you'd recognise mine,' the artist said. 'My goal was not to copy but to create a new style... with bright colours, bringing back elegance through my models.' And that's just what was reflected in her paintings, like the renowned 'Self-portrait (Tamara in a Green Bugatti)'. This exhibition brings together some 200 pieces from 40 private collections, museums and loans.
