O'Keeffe and Texas

By Sharyn Rohlfsen Udall

Book Overview

This is a study of the formative period in the career of the American abstract artist, Georgia O'Keeffe (1887-1986). The colour reproductions in the book, which was published to accompany an exhibition held at the Marion Koogler MacNay Art Museum in San Antonio, Texas, in the spring of 1998, present powerful images made in Texas between 1912 and 1918 - all of them different from the flowers and animal bones normally associated with O'Keeffe's work.

O'Keeffe's Texas Years

Fantastic survey of Georgia O'Keeffe's time in Texas! I really enjoyed looking at her rare Texas Suite watercolors which are hard to find in many mongrams of O'keeffe's. If you are an O'Keeffe fan, I highly recommend this book.

Well reserched imformation about O'keeffe's Texas years.

What can I say. As a fan of Georgia O'keeffe's artwork, I must say that Ms. Udall's way of writing is quite concise. She does a wonderful job of breaking down her book into sections: Solids and voids, Light, and Line as a formal element. I thought Ms. Udall's book does a great job deatailing the finer points of O'keeffe's Texas years (1912-1918).
