Overview
Georgia O'Keeffe, the artist often described as the mother of American Modernism, along with her Australian contemporaries Margaret Preston and Grace Cossington Smith, will be the subject of a four-month exhibition at the Art Gallery of NSW.
Running from July 1 to October 22, O'Keeffe, Preston, Cossington Smith: Making Modernism has been curated by the team at AGNSW, along with Santa Fe's Georgia O'Keeffe Museum, Melbourne's Heide, and the Queensland Art Gallery, and will feature more than 30 works by each of the three women created across the length of their respective careers. In doing so, it will showcase both the distinctive styles developed by the artists, as well as the similarities in their subject matter, technique and the ways in which they viewed the world.
