A groundbreaking introduction to the photographic work of an iconic
modern artist The pathbreaking artist Georgia O'Keeffe (1887-1986)
is revered for her iconic paintings of flowers, skyscrapers, animal
skulls, and Southwestern landscapes. Her photographic work,
however, has not been explored in depth until now. After the death
of her husband, the photographer Alfred Stieglitz, in 1946,
photography indeed became an important part of O'Keeffe's artistic
production. She trained alongside the photographer Todd Webb,
revisiting subjects that she had painted years before-landforms of
the Southwest, the black door in her courtyard, the road outside
her window, and flowers. O'Keeffe's carefully composed photographs
are not studies of detail or decisive moments; rather, they focus
on the arrangement of forms. This is the first major investigation
of O'Keeffe's photography and traces the artist's thirty-year
exploration of the medium, including a complete catalogue of her
photographic work. Essays by leading scholars address O'Keeffe's
photographic approach and style and situate photography within the
artist's overall practice. This richly illustrated volume
significantly broadens our understanding of one of the most
innovative artists of the twentieth century. Published in
association with the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston Exhibition
