I was recently invited by Paulina Leonor Lempicka to attend her Graphic Art Exhibit and other Artists showing their work in honoring Lady Gaga
at Gallerie Chappe on 4 rue André Barsacq, Paris 75018. However, I will
concentrate primarily on the work of Paulina and a short introduction
of multi-media artist Brisa Roché for this expose.
in. Many waited for several hours before they could catch a glimpse of
the wares that would unfold once they entered this wonderfully
spacious gallery.

I was fortunate to have been invited, so I politely walked in front of those waiting to get in without an invite and entered easily. There
was an eclectic panoply of humanity in attendance, from those looking
ultra conservative to the totally outrageous. A typical Parisian
opening...

As I congregated amongst the guests Paulina lunged forward grabbed my hand and introduced me to her mother, French Fashion Designer Lolita Lempicka.
She greeted me with the utmost dignity. I actually felt that I was in
the company of someone more regal who could have fit quick nicely in
to a 17th century Aristocratic soirée at the Petite Palais in Paris,
than in a 18th arrondissement Gallery in Montmartre. None the less, it
was a short but sweet encounter.

I was also able to speak with Paulina more profoundly which I am pleased I did, as I discovered a bit more about her interest in her craft,
which you can view in the video below. I also spoke with the curator
of the exhibition Alexandra Boucherifi as well as gallery owner
Alexandre Gilbert. I also briefly spoke with Multi-Media Artist Brisa
Roché whom I plan on doing a more comprehensive interview with.
The Artists showing are Paulina Leonor (Lempicka), Brisa Roché, Harvey Ambomo Lady K, Artus de Lavilléon, Marc Sich, Arnaud Pagès, Gwenael
Billaud, Ilona and Orlan.
