Description
Tilla Durieux was a celebrated star of the film and theater, a modern woman of the 1920s, politically active and perhaps the most portrayed woman of her time. Her roles were as varied as the artists for whom she posed as a model, among them Auguste Renoir, Max Slevogt, Lovis Corinth, Franz von Stuck, Charley Toorop, Ernst Barlach, Oskar Kokoschka, Max Oppenheimer and the photographers Lotte Jacobi and Frieda Riess.
Tilla Durieux held already for her contemporaries, and explores the traces of this scintillating personality through portraits of all media. Featuring rarely exhibited archival material the catalogue highlight Durieux's career, her social and artistic milieu as well as her life shaped by political upheaval.
