DiaporamaJack-in-the-Pulpit No. IV
Abstract Expressionism
1930
105.0 x 80.0 cm
Georgia O'Keeffe (1887 – 1986)
Explore the iconic world of Georgia O'Keeffe! Known for her mesmerizing flower paintings and New Mexico landscapes, she redefined American modernism with bold abstraction & a unique vision.
An abstracted painting of a roughly oval-shaped jack-in-the-pulpit flower fills this vertical composition with cool, saturated blues, grays, and greens. A royal-blue elongated, rounded core at the bottom center is surrounded by a pale gray flame-like shape. Petals flare outward and up around the core to reach toward the sides and top of the canvas. A thin white line extends upward from the top center of the core to meet the pointed tip of the unfurling, innermost midnight-blue petal. Layers of green, reminiscent of leaves, curl outward around the top half of the flower. Pale blue in each of the four corners creates the impression of a background behind the flower, and fades to white at the top corners.
