Georgia O'Keeffe : 1887-1986 : flowers in the desert
Benke, Britta2011
Book
Sensuality and color fuse with nature The art of American painter Georgia O'Keeffe (1887-1986) is splendid with color and laden with hidden sensuality. O'Keeffe's fame was largely earned by her large-format flower pictures that have assured her an unusual place in the annals of art, between realist and abstract. This book traces the idiosyncratic of O'Keeffe's career, and numerous illustrations document the most important periods in her lengthy life in art.
