O'Keeffe

by Britta Benke

Overview

The art of American painter Georgia O'Keeffe (1887-1986) is resplendid with color and laden with hidden sensuality. O'Keeffe's reputation rests mainly on the large-format flower pictures that have assured her an unusual place in the annals of art, between realism and abstraction. This book traces OKeeffe's idiosyncratic career, and numerous illustrations document the most important periods in her lengthy life in art.
