Description: | Amy de la Haye curated Coco Chanel: A New Portrait by Marion Pike, Paris 1967-71, an exhibition that explores the life stories, friendships and entwined creativity of two, extraordinarily talented, twentieth century women. Californian artist Marion Pike met Coco Chanel when she painted her portrait in 1967. The story of their friendship – revealed here for the first time – provides a fascinating new narrative. Marion was a superb colourist, whose paintings – many monumental in size – are both sensitive and exuberant. The exhibition includes five striking portraits of Chanel – which have never before been exhibited together, in addition to beautiful haute couture fashion pieces worn by Marion and her daughter Jeffie. |
