Tonight's lecture: Georgia O'Keeffe: Beyond the Blossoms   Flower painting has long been the realm of women artists, so it is not surprising the Georgia O'Keeffe is best known for her revolutionary floral still lifes. Of course, in her eight-decade-long career, O'Keeffe explored a variety of subjects, including the skyscrapers of NYC and the deserts of New Mexico. This program will shine a light on other subjects and examine the ways O'Keeffe employed abstraction to become known as the "Mother of American modernism".
