 Georgia O'Keeffe, recognized and loved by a broad audience, is universally considered one of the greatest Italian American painters of the 20th century. She was named for her immigrant grandfather, Giorgio Totto. Georgia is renowned world-wide for her distinctive style, simplistic form, and sparse and bold color. Her monumentally sensuous oil paintings of flowers hang in the best museum collections but are also known via mass-produced posters, greeting cards and calendars. Her radical departures from realism, eventually led to a painting style characterized by a state of suspension. Over the course of her lengthy career-she worked up until two years before her death at age 98-she discovered and developed a personal language through which to express her own feelings and ideas, creating bold picture conceptions and spatial designs that hover somewhere between the real and the abstract.
