Description


Learning to Look | Georgia O’Keeffe and the Transcendental Painting Group

Georgia O’Keeffe first traveled to Taos, New Mexico, in 1929, where she encountered a circle of like-minded abstractionists who would become the Transcendental Painting Group. Among the artists associated with this movement were Raymond Jonson, Emil Bisttram, and Agnes Pelton. This presentation traces the parallel paths of O’Keeffe and her contemporaries, examining early modernist influences and the impact of the Southwest’s bright skies and stark landscapes on their work in the 1930s and ’40s.
