Hardcover/gebunden. Condizione: leichte Gebrauchsspuren. reprint. A landmark survey that illuminates through paintings, pastels, and photographs how Georgia O'Keeffe discovered and refined her approach to nature at Lake George From 1918 until the early 1930s, Georgia O?Keeffe lived for part of the year on Alfred Stieglitz?s family estate at Lake George, New York. O'Keeffe and Stieglitz stayed there from spring until fall, and she reveled in the discovery of new subject matter. She found respite in the bucolic setting, and in her studio, nicknamed ?the shanty,? she could concentrate on her work without the distractions of city life and the Stieglitz clan that congregated at the lake in the summer months. The Lake George retreat provided the basic material for her art, while evoking the spirit of place that was essential to O?Keeffe?s modern approach to the natural world. This book, and the exhibition it accompanies, examines the extraordinary body of work O?Keeffe created there, from magnified botanical compositions of the flowers and vegetables she grew in her garden to a group of remarkable still lifes of the apples and pears that she picked. O?Keeffe became fascinated with the variety of trees that grew there, and they were the subject of at least twenty-five compositions. Architectural subjects emerged as a theme, as did a number of panoramic landscape paintings and bold, color-filled abstractions. During this highly productive period, O?Keeffe created more than two hundred paintings on canvas and paper in addition to sketches and pastels, making the Lake George years among the most prolific and transformative of her seven-decade career.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. "Welcome to Alaska, where the grebes glide on the cobalt water and the caribou shed their antlers. Travel to these timeless, wild landscapes with an accomplished ecopoet as a guide. In these pages, with glorious detail, humor, respect and awe, Erin Robertson takes us on a grand midsummer adventure. Don your metaphorical rubber boots and prepare to fall in love with the swans, the moose, the moss, the lakes, the blueberries, the lightning, the haunting cry of the loon. This book is pure treasure."-Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer, author of The Unfolding and host of The Poetic Path "Erin Robertson's What the River May Bring is a poetic journey of healing through Alaska's interior wilderness. Written during a two-week Voices of the Wilderness residency, these gorgeously wrought poems trace rivers, dunes, burn scars, and birch forests. Alongside the cranes, loons, and swans populating these pages are the people whose lives are intertwined with the land. From Arrival to Departure, this is an urgent collection with its ear firmly to the ground, honoring this unique ecosystem and inviting us not only to witness the beauty in the landscape but also to pay attention to the awe rising within ourselves."-Jeremy Schraffenberger, editor at the North American Review and author of American Sad "If you can't make it to the Alaskan wilderness, or if you want to be inspired to go, here is your poetic guide. Listen to the 'soft sound of wind moving from the dunes/ the wild ancient chatter of sandhill cranes' or see 'the white punctuation of swan/ or the brown bulk of moose.' Over and over, these poems say, look, listen, closer, imagine-a shed caribou's antler becomes portal to deep time, a flock of grebe chicks 'skedaddle in a burst of paddling feet, ' and fireweed becomes a synesthetic riff that 'smells like red hots/ looks like roller skating.' There's a true intimacy in this voice-spilling with wonder, tipping into humor, moved by compassion, and always informed by a naturalist's wisdom. With one ear to the world and one ear to the poem's song, these poems distill gorgeous imagery to evoke the lives in this wild northern landscape. From start to finish, I loved the journey these beautiful poems brought me on."-Anne Haven McDonnell, author of Breath on a Coal and Living with Wolves "Erin Robertson spent two weeks in Alaska's Koyukuk National Wildlife Refuge, and these poems carry back what she found: loons calling across Drop Lake, caribou antlers weathered to 'chalk white, ' the 'crimped downy frizzed fibers' of otter undercoat. A trained biologist, Robertson writes with detail about dune succession and soil profiles, describing fireweed in synesthetic terms ('smells like red hots / looks like roller skating music') and noting that ancient-looking spruce samples 'came back 290 years young.' Yet her scientific eye serves emotional and aesthetic purposes as the collection moves between wilderness solitude and community life-between grief and delight, precise observation and playful invention-always oriented by Robertson's ability to find, as she writes, 'a one-inch bit of wonder' wherever she looks."-Radha Marcum, author of Pine Soot Tendon Bone and Bloodline This item is printed on demand.
