From 1918 until the early 1930s, Georgia O’Keeffe retreated annually to Alfred Stieglitz’s family estate on Lake George in upstate New York, where she reveled in the discovery of new subject matter and found respite in the rural setting without the distractions of city life. O’Keeffe’s experiences there inspired one of the most transformative and productive periods of her career, energizing the development of her signature modernist style.
From magnified botanical compositions to panoramic landscapes, the works in this exhibition, GEORGIA O'KEEFFE AND LAKE GEORGE, offer a deeper understanding of the spirit of place and was essential to O'Keeffe's artistic evolution.
Georgia O'Keeffe and Lake George is on display at the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco from February 15 through May 11, 2014.
