【美国人物志】乔治亚·奥基弗 (7/11)
乔治亚·奥基弗 Georgia O‘Keeffe )或 乔治亚·欧姬芙Georgia Totto O'Keeffe(1887年11月15日~1986年3月6日)是一位美国艺术家,被列为20世纪的艺术大师之一。欧姬芙的绘画作品已经成为1920年代美国艺术的经典代表,她以半抽象半写实的手法闻名,其主题相当具有特色,多为花朵微观、岩石肌理变化,海螺、动物骨头、荒凉的美国内陆景观为主。她的作品中常充满著同色调的细微变化,组成具有韵律感的构图,某些时候欧姬芙画中的物品外轮廓,让观者感到此物品的清脆感。Hints:

The desert environment was the subject of many of her paintings. O'Keeffe had moved to the state of Texas when she was 25. She accepted a two-year position as supervisor of art in the public schools of Amarillo, Texas. Later, she taught in a small town. She wrote about long walks on narrow paths in a canyon near that town. The dangerous climbs in and out of the canyon were like nothing she had known before. She wrote that many paintings came from experiences like that. In one such painting, the canyon is shown as a huge deep hole of many colors -- reds, oranges and yellows. It looks as if it is on fire. The canyon fills most of the picture. A small area of blue sky in the distance lends additional depth to the picture.
