Georgia O'Keeffe's comment, 'Texas is my spiritual home', is the inspiration behind this study of her years there. Illustrated with 50 colour reproductions and several supporting images, and with detailed chronology, this book is an important contribution to the growing body of knowledge on this pioneering modernist and quintessential American artist. It shows how the powerful light and stark landscape of Texas resonated throughout the artist's work, and demonstrates the connection between O'Keeffe and the spirit of the vast plains of west Texas. This was the formative period in her career, and the book divides her work into thematic sections which reflect the five formal themes O'Keeffe developed in this period: landforms, solids and voids, light, geometric patterns and line as formal element. It then proceeds to show the continuity of O'Keeffe's vision over the next half-century. (Kirkus UK)
