Becoming O'Keeffe: The Early YearsIn this illustrated study, Peters traces the strands of Art Noveau and Symbolist theory in the art of Georgia O'Keeffe. Limiting her study to the period between 1915 and 1930, when O'Keeffe defined her essential artistic beliefs and style, she discusses the many influences on her photographer friend Paul Strand. Peters also analyzes the relationship between O'Keeffe's painting and the photography and philosophy of her husband Alfred Stieglitz. ISBN 0-89659-907-8: $39.95. |
