From the Faraway Nearby: Georgia O'Keeffe as Icon

by Christopher Merrill

Book Overview

It has always been difficult to separate Georgia O'Keeffe's art and closely guarded life from the carefully guarded public image and powerful myths that grew around her. This collection of critical essays, memoirs, and poetry, first published in 1992 and now available only from UNM Press, offers a unique view of O'Keeffe, not only as an artist but as a cultural icon.

a good mix of thoughts

This compilation of essays writen about Georgia O'Keeffe is varied and thought provocing if you are allready somewhat educated in her history. It is not a good starter on this great artist. Many well-educated scholars contribute their take on the various subject matter that can be associated with O'Keeffe.
