Moments in Modernism
Georgia O'Keeffe and Andy Warhol: Flowers of Distinction
May 13, 2005 - January 08, 2006
Georgia O’Keeffe and Andy Warhol: Flowers of Distinction brings together
approximately 40 depictions of flowers by two of America’s most celebrated
and popular artists. In so doing, it demonstrates how their paintings of the
same subject, which represent very different moments in the history of American
modernism, allowed them to both position and distinguish themselves within an
age-old tradition of flower painting.
A
catalogue accompanies the exhibition and is available for purchase at
the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum Shop. Contributors to the catalogue include
Barbara Buhler Lynes, Georgia O'Keeffe Museum Curator and the Emily
Fisher Landau Director of the Museum's Research Center, Heather Hole,
Assistant Curator, Georgia O'Keeffe Museum, Neil Printz, Editor of the
Andy Warhol catalogue raisonné, and John Smith, Assistant Director for
Collections, Exhibitions and Research at The Andy Warhol Museum,
Pittsburgh.
