Georgia O'Keeffe: A Sense of Place

 Page 1 of 2Next>

BUFFALO, N.Y.
:Known for her iconic images of flowers, bones and the American Southwest, Georgia O'Keeffe was not only a pioneer of Twentieth Century American art, but was in the forefront of American abstraction. A new exhibition at the Albright Knox Art Gallery, "Georgia O'Keeffe: A Sense of Place," seeks to reveal her lifelong commitment to abstraction by revisiting her New Mexico landscapes; it encourages the viewer, with the aid of site-specific photographs, to see a more abstracted relationship between subject and painting.

The exhibition shows that O'Keeffe did not faithfully represent the land in which she lived, but instead, created selective and subjective explorations of the landscapes through her use of color and shape. "Georgia O'Keeffe: A Sense of Place" will be at the Albright-Knox Art Gallery until May 8.
