200 Careers Connected to Visual Arts

 

Georgia O'Keefe, Red Poppy, 1929

More than a quarter of artist Georgia O’Keeffe’s paintings, such as “Red Poppy,” focused on flowers. Following her own artistic vision by rejecting accepted artistic styles, O’Keeffe (1887 – 1986) painted enormous flowers, underscoring their importance in a way that commanded attention. Removing her subjects from any familiar context, O’Keeffe’s exaggerated, colorful flowers became intense abstracts.

Art is a nation's most precious heritage. For it is in our works of art that we reveal to ourselves, and to others, the inner vision which guides us as a Nation. And where there is no vision, the people perish.  

~Lyndon B. Johnson
