La première rétrospective en France de Georgia O’Keeffe (1887 – 1986)

Georgia O’Keeffe (1887 – 1986), is one of the greatest figures of North American art of the 20th century. In the United States, she is a legend and she was the first woman to have been exhibited at the MoMA in New York
The Georgia O’Keeffe exhibition at the Centre Pompidou offers a complete tour of a hundred paintings, drawings and photographs
The route of the free exhibition, the circulation is done according to one’s choice, without the obligation to follow a thematic or chronological route. Only the 1st room is chronological with the evocation of the artist’s beginnings in New York around 1914
Then, let yourself be guided by the colors and themes. You will see the first “cosmic” vertigo inspired by the immensity of the Texas plains in 1910, the metropolises and rural landscapes of New York State in the 1920s and 1930s, and the force of nature in New Mexico, where she settled permanently after the Second World War
Georgia O’Keeffe’s work is very close to nature. Children will be sensitive to his use of colour and will particularly appreciate his paintings of flowers which have made him famous and the plant inspiration which is a recurring motif of the artist
