Fascinated as much by the expressive intensity as by the character of African art, Mrs. Helena Rubinstein (1872-1965) collected more than four hundred magnificent works during her lifetime, now scattered throughout the world. Today we honor this influential and passionate woman who contributed to the recognition and valorization of African and Oceanic arts in the West.
