Georgia O'Keeffe's "My New Yorks" Takes Center Stage at the Art Institute of Chicago | stupidDOPE
Briefly

Georgia O'Keeffe's New York paintings reveal her unique perspective on urban life, showcasing her evolution as a modern art icon and challenging male-dominated art scenes.
In her series My New Yorks, O'Keeffe beautifully blends abstract shapes with soft details, portraying Manhattan's skyscrapers alongside delicate floral motifs to express the city's hidden beauty.
O'Keeffe's time in Manhattan deeply influenced her work, particularly after moving into the 30th floor of the Shelton Hotel, where a new urban vantage point inspired her creativity.
Through her unconventional artistic techniques and use of scale, O'Keeffe redefined urban representation, shifting the focus from the city's physical form to the experience of inhabiting it.
