Georgia O’Keeffe revolutionized American art with her bold flowers, sweeping landscapes, and striking abstractions, offering a fresh and deeply personal perspective on the natural world. As the first woman to have a solo exhibition at New York’s Museum of Modern Art, O’Keeffe broke barriers in the male-dominated art world. Her career spanned over 70 years, drawing inspiration from the deserts of New Mexico, the skyscrapers of New York, and the intricate beauty of everyday life. via @arttyco 👉 F

Georgia O’Keeffe was a woman before her time. She took abstraction and made it personal. She found beauty in the small, the imperfect—in the curves of a flower, the vastness of a desert. But despite her profound talent, she faced skepticism from male critics who dismissed her work as overly feminine, sexualized, or decorative. They failed to recognize the depth and complexity of her artistic vision. But O’Keefe persevered. She refused to let gender norms and societal expectations define her art.
