Description
Book Synopsis
An indispensable introduction to the life and work of Georgia O'Keeffe, whose distinctive vision and pioneering approach to painting nature offer a unique way of looking at the world and cement her reputation as the "mother of American modernism" Georgia O'Keeffe (1887-1986) is one of the most significant artists of the 20th century. She had a unique way of looking at the world, paring back the beauty of nature to capture its essence with fluid and skillful brushstrokes that revealed her expert handling of line, color, and composition. This book is a compelling introduction to the life and work of an extraordinary artist. Beginning with her early study of traditional painting techniques, it charts the significant moment when she chose to break with the established conventions and forge her own path by experimenting with abstraction. Touching on her many travels, including to the rugged deserts of New Mexico that immediately became a powerful source of inspiration for her work, this book provides a rich overview of the radical abstractions, dynamic landscapes and vibrant botanical studies that cemented O'Keeffe as an innovator pioneer in the development of American modernism.About the Author
