[NM-20] 07 靈感的源頭Georgia O'Keeffe Museum — Santa Fe, NM

Georgia O'Keeffe喬琪雅.歐奇芙是二十世紀最重要的畫家之一, 

也是少數的女畫家."The wildeness and wonder of the world as I live in it".Georgia O'Keeffe生於1887年11月15日威斯康辛州, 家中七個孩子, 排行第二, 從小喜歡畫畫, 高中畢業立志要當藝術家.1905-1908年她在藝術學院學畫, 可是總覺得傳統畫法無法滿足她

創作的願望, 

四年後她遇見Arthur Wesley Dow先生認為藝術要表達個人的理念和感情最好的方式便是在線條, 色彩, 和明暗上取得合諧.1910-1920年Georgia O'Keeffe在紐約帶頭發起"跳出傳統Avant-Garde Art Movements"的藝術風氣, 

她的畫風獨樹一格, 以特大花卉, 紐約的摩天大樓, 不起眼的動物乾骨枯枝, 

以及新墨西哥州空曠蒼涼的荒漠景色........... 為題材. 

以半抽象方式表達, 

她用簡單的線條, 亮麗及對比鮮明的色彩, 將大自然與人的感情結為一體, 成為永恆的焦點.新墨西哥州的美麗風景吸引造就了Georgia O'Keeffe的畫造就了新墨西哥州的藝術天地, 

新墨西哥州的Abiquiu(Winter)及Ghost Ranch(Summer)有Georgia O'Keeffe的故居.走在Santa Fe的街上, 突然地上看到了Georgia O'keeffe的名字出現在地上.Santa Fe的Georgia O’Keeffe Museum博物館收藏了139件Georgia O'Keeffe的作品, 號稱世界之冠!



"花兒太小, 人們看不到它們的真面貌
我們沒有時間仔細觀賞它們
所以我畫我看到的花, 畫的很大
這樣一來, 連忙碌的紐約人都會注意到
你們花時間看了我的花, 便會聯想到你們的生活和見解, 

真所謂, 由一朵花見到天堂!" - Georgia O'Keeffe 

 



Nobody sees a flower, really, it is so small. We haven't time - and to see takes time like to have a friend takes time. If I could paint the flower exactly as I see it no one would see what I see because I would paint it small like the flower is small. So I said to myself - I'll paint what I see - what the flower is to me but I'll paint it big and they will be surprised into taking time to look at it - I will make even busy New Yorkers take time to see what I see of flowers. ...Well, I made you take time to look at what I saw and when you took time to really notice my flower you hung all your own associations with flowers on my flower and you write about my flower as if I think and see what you think and see of the flower - and I don't. - Georgia O'Keeffe
