This lavish art book offers a comprehensive overview of one of the most beloved and respected artists of the twentieth century. Published on the occasion of the 10th Anniversary of the opening of The Georgia O'Keeffe Museum, in Santa Fe, New Mexico - which holds the world's largest collection of her work - this volume features many of O'Keeffe's most iconic paintings, drawings and sculpture culled from the museum's collection, spanning her entire artistic career from 1901-1982. Also included here are a generous portfolio of photographs of the artist by her husband Alfred Stieglitz and by other renowned photographers such as Ansel Adams, Eliot Porter and Tod Webb. In addition, the book reproduces a selection of O'Keeffe's own photographs, most of which have never been previously published. The museum houses the Georgia O'Keeffe Research Center, the only museum-related facility dedicated to the study of American Modernism. This book features a number of works by American Modernist painters - George Bellows, Thomas Hart Benton, Oscar Blumner, Marsden Hartley, Robert Henri and Edward Hopper among them. A testament to O'Keeffe's enduring international reputation; the museum has welcomed nearly 3 million visitors from around the world in the past 10 years.
