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.

Demetre H. Chiparus - and the Spirit of Art Nouveau
Living in Paris in the Golden Twenties, next to the movements in the
fine arts and a new, modern image of women as Garçonne, Demetre Chiparus
was influenced by the glamarous revues as they were displayed in the
Folies Bèrgere or in the Moulin Rouge. Famous male and female dancers
like Isadora Duncan and the Dolly Sisters were guests here. Their exotic
costumes and dance moves inspired Chiparus' fragile and sumptuous
chryselephantine figures.
