Description

From the end of 1929 to the beginning of 1930, Lan Bijia worked in New York and became the chief portrait painter demanded by rich people in Europe and the United States. They focused on the new, Classicism modernism, which dominated the post-war international style. Just as Fernand L é ger also turned to characters in the early 1920s, the Blue Brigitte was also attracted by the streamlined mechanical design, presented in a flat, clearly defined, yet still modeled form. Unlike Laige, Lan Bijia is unwilling to give up the pleasure of her body. She likes to depict the sensuality of her body in elegant and beautiful contour forms, especially female images.
