Condition: VG PB. Color and b/w photos (illustrator). 1st PB ptg. One of the most successful American artists of the 20th century, O'Keeffe made enormous contributions to modern art and in her seminal paintings of intimately rendered flowers, desert landscapes, and stark white cow skulls where she applied the photographic techniques of cropping and composition usually relegated to the camera lens. Behind her work and celebrity was a woman misunderstood by even her most ardent admirers, but this finely balanced biography offers an astonishingly honest portrayal of a life shrouded in myth. Slight wear along bottom edge of front cover.

Final charges may vary depending on size and weight. 'Georgia O'Keeffe may be the best known and least understood artist of the twentieth century. She was a woman who lived the newspaper editor's adage that, if the myth is more stirring than the truth, print the myth. Nonetheless, I have attempted an honest portrayal of the woman behind the myth, exploring her remarkable strengths and talents as well as the demons and dark past that occasionally drove her to behave cruelly. In fact, O'Keeffe's story turned out to be characterized by great suffering, professional and emotional set-back, and by good fortune and the wisdom to take advantage of it. O'Keeffe, like many great artists, was not thrilled with the truth of her own story and took pains to disguise her past. In her idealized autobiography, Georgia O'Keeffe, she described her early childhood on a Sun Prairie, Wisconsin, farm as idyllic. The truth is that her parents were not happily married and bad decisions made by her father proved to be disastrous to the welfare of the family. As a result, shortly after the turn of the century, when families were less migratory than today, .her family's loss of income left her in Chicago, at the age of twenty, with little hope of becoming an artist. Instead, she worked long hours as a freelance illustrator for miniscule pay. Scattered dreams, piecemeal education and poverty; this is not the picture painted in O'Keeffe's own autobiography. O'Keeffe developed her first abstractions, which were shown at Alfred Stieglitz' modern art gallery, 291, where Pablo Picasso and Henri Matisse were first presented in the United States. Her relationship with Stieglitz during these years was professional. She was infatuated with Paul Strand, the young photographer who was Stieglitz' most promising protege. Strand's cropped and close-up style of photography was crucial to the development of O'Keeffe's painting. Photography, combined with Dow's theories, enabled O'Keeffe to develop a style of painting that was rooted in realism yet abstracted by virtue of the foreshortening and cropping borrowed from the lens and the darkroom. In the early twentieth century, painting largely remained the preserve of men; photography was a relatively fresh field of endeavor in which women were allotted recognition, even sales. O'Keeffe insinuated the graphic power of photography into her painting, thereby finding unprecedented acceptance in the closed world of fine art. Strand traveled to Texas and brought O'Keeffe, suffering from influenza, back to New York. When faced with the financial responsibility of caring for her, however, he surrendered the field to the well-to-do Stieglitz. O'Keeffe had enjoyed a lively correspondence with Stieglitz and saw him as a source of stability. Unfulfilled by his marriage of nearly twenty-five years, Stieglitz saw an impressionable woman who needed his help. Within weeks of her arrival in New York, Stieglitz, 54, left his wife to live with O'Keeffe. O'Keeffe, 31, blossomed under his attention. His photographs of her are considered iconic proof of their passion. With his help, over the course of the next decade, she became the most famous and highly paid woman artist in the world. She also became less accepting of all that Stieglitz did and said. In 1927, three years after Stieglitz married O'Keeffe, she was at the peak of her creative power, making the large scale flower paintings that now stand as masterpieces of American modern art. At the point when O'Keeffe was enjoying her independence and generating most of their income, Stieglitz lost interest in his creation and began an affair with Dorothy Norman, a wealthy married woman of twenty-one, seven years younger than his only daughter, Kitty. O'Keeffe, heartbroken, endured their open love affair until 1933, when she suffered a nervous breakdown that left her hospitalized for two months. Afterwards, she sought solace in her art and in time alone in New Mexico. The wound would not heal since Norman continued to work closely with Stieglitz at An America Place, his third art gallery, until his death in 1946. It was Stieglitz' emotional and sexual infidelity that drove O'Keeffe to redefine herself, not as he saw her but as she saw herself, in New Mexico. After making her permanent move to the Abiquiu in 1949, O'Keeffe was the subject of a Vogue feature story with photographs taken by Cecil Beaton. Ansel Adams, Todd Webb and Arnold Newman are just of few who also took her portrait, a proliferation that helped her erase the pictures of herself created by Stieglitz. Today, few conjure a mental image of the slender young woman photographed by her elderly lover, Stieglitz. Instead, we see O'Keeffe as she saw herself and as she presented herself to others: noble, aloof, wrinkled from sun and hard work, long hair covered in a black turban, posed with her bleached skulls in an adobe house. In the end, she controlled her own destiny.' from the Author's introduction.

Hardcover. Condition: Used - Like New. Modern treasures: Discoveries from the Julius Shulman vaultsThe photography of Julius Shulman (1910 2009) transported a West Coast dream around the world. His images of mid-century, Southern Californian architecture captured not only the distinctive structural, functional, and design elements of a building but also the context of its surroundings and inhabitants in a holistic, evocative sense of lifestyle. Over time, Shulman s talents would take him around the world, steadily crafting one of the most compelling chronologies of modern architecture.Offering an immense cultural cache for an even lower price, this fresh edition of TASCHEN s Modernism Rediscovered features over 400 architectural treasures from the Shulman archives. Each project and photograph was personally selected from over 260,000 photographs by publisher Benedikt Taschen, who enjoyed a close relationship with Shulman and his work since first publishing Julius Shulman: Architecture and Its Photography (1998). Documenting the reach of modernist aesthetics, the projects span not only the West Coast but also the rest of the United States, as well as Mexico, Israel, and Hong Kong, all captured with Shulman s characteristic understanding of space and situation, as well as his brilliant and intuitive sense of composition.The pictures are contextualized with an introduction by photography critic Owen Edwards, an extensive biography by University of Southern California historian Philip J. Ethington, captions on decorative elements by Los Angeles Modern Auctions founder Peter Loughrey, and biographies of key architects. In addition, the book includes personal reflections from Shulman himself, with an oral history and portrait of the period crafted via months of interviews with arts writer Hunter Drohojowska-Philp.Text in English, French, and German' Very nice clean, tight copy free of any marks.
