Georgia O'Keeffe, The Most Famous Woman Artist Of Twentiethcentury America, Spent The Last Forty Years Of Her Life In Quiet Isolation In New Mexico, Living In An Adobe House That She Had Built On An Old Property In The Village Of Abiquiu (Pronounced Abbeycue).Anyone Who Knows New Mexico, With Its Fierce Light, Pungent Aroma Of Sage, And Big, Open Skies, Will Understand Its Fascination For O'Keeffe. The Landscape Is Direct And Elemental, Like Her Paintings; It Is Tough And Unyielding, Like Her Character.In 1979, Some Seven Years Before Her Death, O'Keeffe Permitted Colorado Photographer Myron Wood To Photograph At Abiquiu And Ghost Ranch. Over The Next Twoandahalf Years, Wood Made Hundreds Of Photographs, Of The Artist Herself, The People Closest To Her (Juan Hamilton, Her Manager; Gardener Steven Lopez, And Others), And Most Especially Of The House, Gardens, And Surrounding Landscape That Nourished O'Keeffe So Richly.Reproduced Here Are Seventynine Of Wood'S Photographs, In Subtle Tones Ranging From Stark White To Dense Black. They Do More Than Merely Document The Look Of The House, They Evoke The Spirit Of The Place As O'Keeffe Inhabited It. Here Are The Smooth Shapes Of The Sunbleached Animal Bones And Riverrounded Rocks That The Painter Loved To Collect; Here Are The Handrubbed Adobe Walls Of A Building That Seems To Grow Out Organically From The Earth.
