Sara Lipska and Adrianna Górska. Two artistic routes Crossing
in Paris. House of Barbar Harrison in Rambouillet
Sara Lipska and Adrianna Górska (Sarah Lipska and Adrienne Górska) two artists, two women, who in
the twenties and thirties of the 20th century were known and esteemed, which is proven by their works and
names of their mandators. Today their Creative activity is worth reminding. Both performed their Creative
activity in Paris. Sara Lipska was born in Mława in 1882 (at that time the City was under Russian rule)
in Jewish family. Adrienne Górska was born in Moscow in 1899, she was a daughter of a Polish attorney.
Lipska studied, as one of the first woman - students, at the Warsaw Academy of Arts, in the sculpture
studio of Xawery Dunikowski, with whom she would be related in futurę. In 1912 she left Poland and
moved to Paris. There she started a cooperation with Sergey Diaghilev’s Russian Ballets. She managed
the sculpture studio, designed scenography and thatcher s costumes, and had her own boutique featuring
own dress projects in the Champs Elysees. Her clients were, among others, Helena Rubinstein, Antoine
de Paris (Antoni Cierplikowski), Russian princesses and French actresses. She designed also furniture and
interiors. On this field her work encountered Adrienne Górska, who arrived to Paris in 1919. In Paris she
studied at the Speciale dArchitecture in Montparnasse, in sculpture studio of Robert Mallet-Stevens. In
1924, as one of first women she received an architect diploma. Her first project was designing the interior
of the Paris apartment of her older sister - Tamara Lempicka. Beginning in 1930 she started the coopera-
tion with architect - Pierre de Montaut (her futurę husband), with whom she realised many projects of
cinemas in Paris as well as in other French cities.
Sara Lipska and Adrienne Górska around 1928 realised together the reconstruction of Barbar Har-
rison-Wescotts (1904-1977) house, a publisher of American literaturę in France (Harrison of Paris) in
Rambouillet. Lipska was an author of interior designs and Górska was an author of architectonic recon-
struction. Joint work of Lipska and Górska was called by one of the criticts “the result of the combined
talent of two women”, and the interiors “striking modern interiors”. He pointed out the harmony of form
and furniture, coherent architectonic and decorative vision.
