Elusive, unconventional, and driven by a quest for the absolute, painter and photographer Dora Maar left behind a distinctive and still under-recognized body of work. Lover of Picasso, wife of Georges Bataille, she lived an extraordinary life alongside some of the most iconic names of the Parisian art scene. Defying conventions and breaking away from established norms, Dora Maar helped reshape the image of women in the 20th century with strength and character. This intimate portrait, crafted with great sensitivity, has been widely praised by critics.
