Krátky popis
A revelatory new volume on the American modernist's lesser-known
works on paper, reuniting many serial works for the first
timeRecalling a charcoal she made in 1916, Georgia O'Keeffe later
wrote, ",I have made this drawing several times--never remembering
that I had made it before--and not knowing where the idea came
from.", These drawings, and the majority of O'Keeffe's works in
charcoal, watercolor, pastel and graphite, belong to series in
which she develops and transforms motifs that lie between
observation and abstraction. In the formative years of 1915 to
1918, she made as many works on paper as she would in the next 40
years, producing sequences in watercolor of abstract lines, organic
landscapes and nudes, along with charcoal drawings she would group
according to the designation ",specials.", While her practice
turned increasingly toward canvas in subsequent decades, important
series on paper reappeared--including charcoal flowers of the
1930s, portraits of the 1940s and aerial views of the
1950s.Published in conjunction with an exhibition at the Museum of
Modern Art, New York, this richly illustrated volume highlights the
drawings of an artist better known as a painter, and reunites
individual sheets with their contextual series to illuminate
O'Keeffe's persistently sequential practice.Born in Sun Prairie,
Wisconsin, Georgia O'Keeffe (1887-1986) first received critical
attention when her breakthrough charcoal drawings were exhibited in
New York in 1916. Two years later, she moved to the city to work
full time on her art. Beginning in 1929, O'Keeffe spent summers in
New Mexico, where she would relocate in 1949. The most famous
female artist of her age, she thought of herself not as ",the best
woman painter", but as ",one of the best painters.",
