Georgia O'Keeffe and American Modernism
The artists working in the first half of the 20th century
responded to European avant garde art in a variety of
ways; sometimes exploring abstraction and at other
times reinventing realism. Many of the greatest names
In American art worked side by side: Charles Sheeler,
John Marin, Stuart Davis, Edward Hopper, Marsden
Hartley, Charles Demuth, Arthur Dove, Thomas Hart
Benton and Milton Avery. O’Keeffe participated in
this artistic revolution that introduced American
Modernism as a distinct movement to the
international art world and changed the face of our
national art scene forever.
