Synopsis

Once-in-a-generation publication on one of the most significant and popular artists of the twentieth century

Georgia O'Keeffe (1887-1986) was one of the foundational figures of American modernism. O'Keeffe rose to prominence as a painter in the early twentieth century at the heart of the New York avant-garde circle that centred around Alfred Stieglitz, who would become her husband. Whilst many contemporary texts on O'Keeffe have focused on her relationship with Stieglitz or re-hashed familiar clichés, particularly about her paintings of flowers, this book brilliantly reassesses the artist's place in the canon of twentieth-century art. Featuring essays from a new generation of scholars, O'Keeffe is revealed as a multifaceted artist who constantly experimented at the boundary between figuration and abstraction. Lavishly illustrated, and including rarely reproduced works and a full illustrated chronology, this is the definitive book on one of the most significant and popular artists of modern times.
