Through Georgia’s Eyes BSW770

US$14.95

A gorgeous, evocative biography of one of America's most beloved artists. Georgia O'Keeffe saw the world differently from most people. As a child she roamed the prairie with a sketch pad in her hand, struggling to capture on paper what she saw all around her. At art school she learned to speak in paint on canvas. But Georgia felt confined by city life. She longed for vast expanses of space, and she found it in the red hills and silent deserts of New Mexico. Lyrical and vivid, this is a portrait of an exceptional artist, a woman whose eyes were open to the wideness and wonder of the world.

從十二歲開始,歐姬芙就立志當一名藝術家,她要把天地萬物的色彩和形狀,--用畫筆描繪出來。在大家的眼中,歐姬芙是一個古怪的孩子,因為在那個年代,只有男生才能成為藝術家。但是歐姬芙一點也不氣餒,她努力畫畫,到藝術學校上課。她喜歡花,就把花畫得很大很大;山脈在她眼中變成了大象,灰白色的動物頭蓋骨,也充滿了生機和韌性。她喜歡用色彩表達自己的情感,用形狀述說她眼裡的世界。

你也想看看歐姬芙眼中的世界嗎?張大你的眼睛,跟著歐姬芙的作品,讓大地奇景滲透你的心。

譽為二十世紀美國最具代表性的藝術家之一,歐姬芙用自己的眼光看世界,不僅創造出獨特的繪畫風格與主題,其大膽創作的精神和決心,也深深影響了整個藝術界。本書作者瑞秋.羅德里奎茲,運用靜謐、不渲染的文字,敘述歐姬芙單純、執著的創作理念。繪者朱莉.帕契琪絲,更將簡潔的文字延伸成色彩豐富的拼貼畫,充分掌握歐姬芙畫作的風格和特色。讀者可以在閱讀中,感受到隨風波動的大草原、擁擠狹隘的都市水泥峽谷、巨大花朵的神祕力量,以及寒冷、沉靜的銀色星空。書後並附有歐姬芙的簡介,及作繪者創作本書的想法,一起用來自大海的貝殼,跟著歐姬芙聆聽大地的聲音吧!
