Georgia O'Keeffe: By Myself(2016)

Georgia O'Keeffe: By Myself is a documentary portrait of America's pioneering modernist painter. In 1929, as the Depression loomed, O'Keeffe relocated to the New Mexico desert seeking solitude and artistic freedom. There, surrounded by stark landscapes, she developed her distinctive visual language—bold flower forms and haunting bone imagery that challenged conventional notions of femininity and abstraction. The film examines how intimate photographs taken by her lover scandalized the public, while her work itself provoked both fascination and outrage. Thirty years after her death, this documentary celebrates O'Keeffe's fearless independence and her profound influence on modern art, coinciding with a major Tate Modern retrospective.
