  • aking It New The Art And Style Of Sara & Gerald Murphy At The Yale University Art Gallery
    February 26, 2008

    ⁏nce upon a time, there was a prince and a princess, and that⁳ exactly how a description of the Murphys should begin,†writer Donald Ogden Stewart once observed of Sara and Gerald Murphy. Attractive, gifted, wealthy Americans with homes in Paris and on the French Riviera, the Murphys were at the center of expatriate cultural and social life during the modernist ferment of the 1920s. Far more than mere wealthy patrons, they were creative kindred spirits whose sustaining friendship released creative energy. The result was some of the most notable art, literature, music and theater of the Twentieth Century. The glittering and sometimes tragic lives of the Murphys and their brilliant artistic circle are rewardingly examined in ⁍aking It New: The Art and Style of Sara & Gerald Murphy,†a fascinating exhibition on view at the Yale University Art Gallery in New Haven, Conn., through May 4.
