Biography:
Born in Wisconsin, Georgia O’Keefe studied at the Art Institute of Chicago and the Art Student’s League in New York. It was during her time at the latter that she met her future husband, avant-garde artist Alfred Stieglitz. Under his influence, she adopted and preached the tenets of Abstract art until the 1920’s when she began working in floral motifs with hints of Surrealism. Toward the end of her life, she moved to New Mexico where the desert scenery became the focus of her work.
