A flower becomes a white water whirlpool in “Abstraction White Rose, 1927” by pioneering modernist artist Georgia O’Keeffe (1887 – 1986). Rebelling against realism, O’Keeffe painted enormous close-ups of flowers which demanded attention. Raised in rural Wisconsin, O’Keeffe’s childhood love of nature inspired her ground-breaking paintings of flowers. Exhibiting the first one-woman show at New York’s Museum of Modern Art, O’Keeffe is still lauded for her talent and independence.
Groundbreaking Modernist painter Georgia O’Keeffe (1887 – 1986) rejected artistic norms to express her own unique vision. Known for the flower paintings which encompass a quarter of her work, O’Keeffe was originally inspired by nature during her childhood in rural Wisconsin. Shunning her artistic education in favor of expressing her emotions, O’Keeffe enlarged flowers until they became abstract artforms whose sheer size commanded attention. An innovator who profoundly impacted 20th century art, O’Keeffe was the first woman honored with her own exhibition at New York’s Museum of Modern Art.
