Sonia Delaunay and “The New Woman“

Dr. Sherry Buckberrough, Delaunay scholar and author of Sonia Delaunay: A Retrospective, will discuss Sonia Delaunay as a modern fashion and textile designer and a radical force in shaping the image of the Parisian “New Woman“ of the 1920s. Buckberrough will illuminate how her designs emphatically deployed the look of modernity across two hemispheres.“
