Description

English summary: In her long career as an artist Georgia O'Keeffe put to the test a range of artistic possibilities and motifs through often enigmatic pictures. Although her symphonic color compositions belonged to a classically developed repertoire of the art of the 20th century, she documented with monumental intensity the disengagement of American art from the traditions of Europe as well as the radical emancipation of an artist. Moreover, the photographs, furnishings, clothing and work materials in this catalog point to an extraordinary woman, whose life is inextricably linked with the solitude in the landscapes of New Mexico. In the photographs of her gallery owner and later husband Alfred Stieglitz (1864-194) she even found herself as an art object through his famous photos of her which were considered shockingly erotic at the time. The facets of her life and work were complimented through the photography of such artists as Ansel Adams, Todd Webb and Arnold Newman. The catalog for the exhibit of the Hypo-Kunsthalle Munich presents an overview of her entire life with a representative selection of her paintings and works on paper in various techniques and sculptures. German description: In ihrer langen Kuenstlerlaufbahn hat Georgia O'Keeffe in oft ratselhaften Bildern nach der Natur ein wahres Spektrum kuenstlerischer Moglichkeiten und Motive erprobt. Ihre symphonischen Farbkompositionen gehoren zum klassisch gewordenen Repertoire der Kunst des 20. Jahrhunderts. Sie dokumentieren mit monumentaler Intensitat die Loslosung der amerikanischen Kunst von den Traditionen Europas ebenso wie die radikale Emanzipation einer Kuenstlerin. Darueber hinaus zeigen in diesem Katalog Fotografien, Mobel, Kleidung und Arbeitsmaterial eine aussergewohnliche Frau, deren Leben untrennbar mit der Einsamkeit in den Landschaften New Mexicos verbunden ist. In den Fotografien ihres Galeristen und spateren Ehemanns Alfred Stieglitz (1864-1946) fand sie sich selbst als Objekt der Kunst wieder, seine beruehmten Fotos von ihr wurden seinerzeit als schockierend erotisch empfunden. Die Facetten ihres Lebens und Schaffens werden durch Aufnahmen bekannter Fotografen wie Ansel Adams, Todd Webb und Arnold Newman erganzt. Der Katalog zur Ausstellung der Hypo-Kunsthalle Muenchen bietet einen Uberblick ueber ihr gesamtes Schaffen mit einer reprasentativen Auswahl ihrer Gemalde, Papierarbeiten in verschiedenen Techniken und Skulpturen.
