Three Artists (three Women)
Three Artists (three Women): Modernism and the Art of Hesse, Krasner, and O'Keeffe | Anne Middleton Wagner
2 posts
Art historian Wagner looks at the imagery and careers of three important figures in the history of twentieth-century art: Eva Hesse, Lee Krasner, and Georgia O'Keeffe, relating their work to three decisive moments in the history of American modernism: the avant-garde of the 1920s, the New York School of the 1940s and 1950s, and the modernist redefinition undertaken in the 1960s. Their artistic contributions were invaluable, Wagner demonstrates, as well as hard-won. She also shows that the fact that these artists were women--the main element linking the three--is as much the index of difference among their art and experience as it is a passkey to what they share.--From publisher description.

Over the course of my long weekend in Byron Bay these were the things I collected from that bus stop book swap. Love a good vintage magazine for a train ride. The tea pot doesn‘t have a strainer but it was cute and free so it came home with me. The Roald Dahl book is for my Stew, who wanted to be a pilot when he grew up. I‘m interested in learning more about the artists in the tagged book.

My walk this morn on my way to the Byron Bay Writer‘s Festival. I randomly came across a 📕 swap at a 🚌 🛑. I‘ll be visiting this 1 multiple xs over this holiday as I‘ll walk past it every day. I‘d no idea were I was going this morn but lucky I‘ve an inbuilt sense of direction unlike my cartographer partner, Stewart. I was on my way to the farmers market. Where I bought some beautiful food including doughnuts, bread & some sugar cane juice.

Tamra I envy your sense of direction! 9mo
