Georgia O'Keeffe's time in the Shelton Hotel significantly influenced her art, particularly her cityscapes and famous flower paintings, reflecting her unique perspective on femininity.
O'Keeffe's flower paintings, considered sexual by many, were initially displayed alongside Alfred Stieglitz's nude photographs, complicating their interpretation and challenging O'Keeffe's stance on the feminine ideal.
The exhibition 'My New Yorks' at the Art Institute of Chicago showcases 45 of O'Keeffe's masterpieces and highlights the significant role Alfred Stieglitz played in her artistic journey.
O'Keeffe and Stieglitz's 22-year marriage deeply influenced her work, although O'Keeffe consistently pushed against the confines of how she was perceived as a female artist.
