Georgia O'Keeffe in New Mexico

[DannyGloverIsAwesome]

Show me on this Georgia O'Keeffe painting where the bad man touched you..

[thisisemilyduh]

whats that music in the background?

[15trilliums]

her paintings were very modern for her time, they were absolutely beautiful. im doing a report on her

[milamilaz1]

my great grandma has met georgia okeefee she was rude to my grandma so i hate her!Oh and my great grandma is still alive

[amysita77]

@milamilaz1 I would be rude to your grandma, too.

[alexeicooper]

...doing an essay.

[DougGroothuis]

What is this from?

[pikochanchan]

Woderfull Grand Mother!

[WeSSENT457]

It snows in New Mex too... Dont let the people make you think its just dirt. It rains and it even has vedars, pines, spruce and of course sacred cacti and other shrubs..Nothing compares..period. She made innovation reality.

[PotenzaW]

Of course, I have know her work all of my adult life. And yet, each time I 'see' it,

I know I see it differently. What powerful abstractions of shapes, color. What landscapes...I so appreciate her for her candor and independence and making it

easier for women to become artists. Wherever you are, Georgia O'Keefe, I hope you are still creating...

[joolsner]

Georgia, you are an inspiration to women artists like myself. Wherever you are, rest in peace.

[ZZZHIYA]

This is a terrific video about her. Thanks for putting it on youtube. I really enjoyed it. I wish I could have known her. She was beautiful!!! What an amazing person. No wonder so many people love her art. This video was so incredibly special because of her age. She is an inspiration and I really appreciate the video.

[adalu90]

Does anyone know where this footage is from? I would love to watch the full clip...

[HarlequinFilms]

Very good. As I was looking at some roses my husband asked me to photograph, something happened as I looked closer and closer through my lens. To my great surprise, Georgia's spirit came through.

[HarlequinFilms]

Very good.

[KiitCat]

does anyone know why she painted skulls with flowers?

[art4artsake66]

Brilliant, brilliant words of advise and experience. Love the line..."It's almost painted for you SO YOU THINK, until you try.

[samuraigraffix]

0:50 man, you know thats an old bitch, talking about how the model A was a good car hahahahaha

[xXAmyAndTriggerXx]

This is a truly inspiratuional artist, walking talking, and a very able artist at 98. She is so significant, I am studying her for my GSCE art final piece. I love the skulls and flowers, and how she created them from "artificial flowers" and a "barrel of bones." Inspirational woman, rest in peace Georgia.

[TheWaterlily2012]

Great interview from a great artist. Her museum is a must to go through.

[vickiehill1]

What an amazing woman...artist. A strong & free spirit. I just love her & her art. She reminds me of my 97 year old grandmother (still living, thank God). I have been to New Mexico. It's an amazing & wondrous place to visit. Don't think I could live there...but the sunsets fill the sky for miles & they are the most brilliantly colored, I think, in the world. Just beautiful!

[judewelter]

Georgia O'Keeffe didn't just talk the talk...she walked the walk. She painted from nature....no wonder her paintings are instilled with such feeling.

[eddiequest4]

She spoke as if she were still in her 50's. WOW. I hope I'm still going on with my art at that age.

[PaashRevolutionary]

bugger being woman and man. she was a great artist, cross that a GREAT artist. those who don't understand it remain trapped in their genitalia.

[dia33386]

KimObrist: Thanks for amazing vid & op to view & hear this most exceptional

artist & woman - and oft misunderstood, especially, her "flower" & "bones"

paintings! Georgia was/and is one of the greatest (imo & others) artists

of all time! And, she was headstrong & tenacious to the end of her life

at the age of 98 Yrs on 3/06/1998 - but, what a "TRUE" artist & spirit!

To kinda get to know this woman better - Jeffery Hogreff's "The Life Of

An American Legend" is a *must*!

[WorldPeaceUnion]

I have so much respect for Georgia O'Keeffe. I admired her determination and love for her art works.

Such a brave woman .it takes courage in a harsh environment like that creating wonderful paintings the way she did. I love her work about Lauren’s tree. Looking at the sky from bottom of the tree, through branches..great view and unusual work.

I never knew she painted from artificial flowers .. I thought they were real, they look so natural and outstanding.

Thank you for sharing this video.

[wordlyguy]

lol i hav to pretend to be her for a class project. its gonna b hard to capture her attitude but im still glad i got the part. PS watch the movie its new and really good

[o0XxawesomexX0o]

shes quite pretty too

[067963777]

wow. 92 years old and still walking and talking. healthy person. im doing an art project on her. amazing

[o0XxawesomexX0o]

@067963777 me too!!

[inverhillsphilo]

Thanks for the post!! This is awesome!!!

[ChervyakovMU]

It is very interesting video

[lemieldemai]

I remember seeing this video when I visited new Mexico in July 2009! It was a good video and I especially remember the music. I can close my eye and be back in the theater in new Mexico again! Great times..... Great times!

[mariellestobie]

"...there were no flowers to pick, so I started to pick up bones." I love this woman.

[ridin1550]

Special video.

[unabulaquena]

very inspiring and she is truly gifted.

[CassiRaye1]

omg i just love her. So much. speechless. Inspiration!!!

[dominicbutez]

La beauté du travail de Georgia O'Keeffe, sa beauté sont uniques et universelles. Respect et amour, elle marchait dans la beauté.

[greenlily9]

Stieglitz is like 20 years away from her

[debbielente]

i live in new mexico

[keatsgipsy]

SUCH A LADY BEFOR HER TIME! I SAW THIS WHOLE BIO YEARS AGO _ it is amazing - her strength helps every inspiring ARTIST TO MARCH ON AND NEVER GIVE UP

[md991free]

Thanks for posting this. Is amazing to see her speak, reflect and move around this beautiful landscape that surrounded her during the final chapter of her life.

Even at 92 she was extremely sharp. What an extraordinary woman.

[Consideration4U]

Thank you Georgia and Ansel and ... everyone!

[MsPoemas]

she is so amazing and sweet..

[FrozenEMT]

If you read her letters and other writings, you'll find that she could also be quite a scrapper, and I say good for her. She says she tells people to stay away..Im exiled (self-imposed because of health) from my NM right now, but when i get back, the only way they will take me out is when they throw me in a pine box and stick me on a funeral pyre and throw my ashes off Sandia Crest or leave my body for thebirds to pick.

[joannesel]

An incredible inspiration to me. I resonate with her love of New Mexico having lived there twice. It grabs you and won't let go.

[joolsner]

I've watched this video so many times. I find it relaxing. Georgia, you are an inspiration to so many women artists including myself. I love your spirit and may it live on.

[dia33386]

KimObrist: Thank u so much for this

vid of Georgia's actual words during this interview w/ her @ her 92 yrs! Enlightening - re this remarkable artist & woman ! When viewing this I find such similarites in her looks & her viewpoints on what makes up her genius rather similar to

those of Frank Lloyd Wright (an architectural genius of the same era) - tho O'Keefe never had the egotistic thought of her worth - while Wright excelled at thinking himself the best!

[UnstableProtagonist]

I remember seeing this in art class during high school. I've just started to study Georgia o'Keefe's work again.

[anonymouskid14]

im studying her in ART GCSE ATM !!!

[rockchick80s]

What a Truly Talented, Fascinating and Interesting Woman. Love her work especially her Erotic Lillies.

[lave4321]

What a jewel to find on Youtube.

[2legit89]

i just had to write an essay on georgia i realy like her work

[SCHarmony]

I loveeeeeeeeeee New Mexico I wish I could move back

[meesterschilders]

placed into my playlist of O'keeffe, thanks

[carrie2654]

what is this clip from?

[dec28]

what the hell is your problem??? Georgia O'keffee broke down many barriers for female artists, and she has created many wonderful paintings. If you dont like her why are you watching this video?

[dec28]

Ok, thats fine, you dont like O'Keeffe but I still dont understand why you would go out of your way and watch a video on the women only to insult her artwork and her self. the things you say are true, she was obviously a lesbian or at least bi-sex. and theres no denying that some of her artwork looks like parts of the female anatomy, but many people belive she showed objects in different ways and why ruin it for them.

[chandru1103]

@dec28 escapism.



[technogeek5000]

chandrue1103 it is so sad that you have such bad feelings toward such a creative force. Her mind was not small, only yours.

[chandru1103]

yeh really creative nothing like using flowers as symbols for life in paintings...oh wait that was done 500 years ago...she is not a real modern artist. My mind is not small the fact that she could place negative feelings on Mark Rothko's beautiful, deeper bodies of work just is a testment to how academicly brainwashed she was.

[serapaku]

@chandru1103 i have to disagree. she was not academically brainwashed - quite the contrary. school actually prevented her from creating the works of art she is known for today. she even admitted, at one point, that she didn't see the point in painting - she felt people in the past did it better than she could. fortunately, she didn't give up. her work is completely original and her ability to turn ordinary objects into extraordinary pieces still astonishes me along with millions of others.

[chandru1103]

@serapaku And one in five US households have a Thomas Kinkade in them...Numbers definitely aren't equivalent to quality.

[serapaku]

@chandru1103 to insult those who appreciate her work shows not only your arrogance but inability to appreciate innovative art. thomas kinkade is not my cup of tea, but i'm not going to insult those who appreciate his work

[actressnsoccerstar2]

In art we did one of her drawings she is so amazing

[stramz123]

im doing art h/w about her some one please help - i need to find out her approach to her drawings using 100 words

[serapaku]

@stramz123 i know this is really really late, and probably irrelevant to you now, but look up Arthur Dow, Alfred Stieglitz and abstraction

[boredness6789]

I watched this video in my art class at school.

[violinistgypsy87]

I like the part she talks about painting skulls, and not relating them to death... painting flowers with them, so brilliantly amazing.

[korechnyevaya86]

she is feisty and sassy :)

[GeckoMoose]

Beautiful piece.

[desinga]

When she first moved from the East to Texas, to teach school, she wrote a friend, "Tonight, I walked into the sunset." She loved the Texas sky. She said the West was her and she was the West. So inspiring.

[engagementz]

What a human inspiration Georgia O'keefe is!!

[wytchwhisper]

one of my fave artists:)

[almohvn33]

fabulous fabulous video.. thanks!!!!!!!!

[Geostars]

Beautiful!

[myriambozaolivari]

New Mexico is an amazing place to create! She is an amazing creator.

[craniocean]

this is so, so special. will be with her tomorrow and with ansel adams at the norton in wpb. thanks for finding and posting this.

[TheForceCanSpeak]

does anyone know when/where/how this was originally aired?

[Mystwicca]

yes everything is different here, and amen, I hope too that no one else sees the enchantment here and I hope they all stay away too :) hehe...this lady has a spiritual eye that few have :)

[Mystwicca]

She was so right, most people think of the Deserts of New Mexico as dry dead land, its so far from that, its the most Spiritual Beautiful land Ive ever seen. Truly, The Land of Enchantment :)

[toliebi]

"The sky is different, the stars are different, the wind is different!"

[toliebi]

Georgia - such a sweet name, such a sweet lady ( in fact, it's the first time I got to see this wonderful artist in "live"). She reminds my so much of my late great grandma with her complexion, her look, her manners:) Wow! And I love her landscapes, her flowers with an incredible style, innovative and incomparable synthesis of abstraction, impression,spiritual experience, abstraction. Awesome! Thanks for posting!

[KiwiVagabond]

very special

[69milosh]

A lifetime fan of O'Keeffe's, it was just yesterday that I finished her exquisite biography by Roxanna Robinson. I was delighted to find this youtube posting. Thank you!

[CRIT2977]

This was a wonderful tribute to her life and work. I am writing a report on her and this video brought a wealth of information!

[artzeug]

Thank you for posting

[40yrOLDsexPERVERT]

[vigesabe]

I am doing a project on her work. Seeing and hearing her alife, and explaining her inspirations, gives more depth at understanding her work.

[KayakFreak]

Thank you for posting.  This was a treat. :)

cette video est fascinante et Georgia o keeffe d'une beauté ..!

[jfjhew83]

Is this a section from a dvd that we can purchase?

[whatbeautythisis]

I wish I were more like her.

[dia33386]

Thank you so for this video & the op to hear Georgia O'Keefe's voice which so adds to Laurie Lisle's "Portrait of An Artist/Georgia O'keefe"; and Jeffery Hogrefe's "O'KEEFE/ The Life Of An American Legend"; & my own visit to her museum in Sante Fe & her home in Abiqui! She has & shall always remain one of the artists of all time!

[swt090]

New mexico is breathtakingly beatiful.

Best state. Hands Down.

[doodleollyrox]

thank you so much for posting this! where, oh where did u get this video?

[ronnymc]

What a lovely piece! O'keefe's humanity and wit are charming. loved this!

[angelstar22]

Where did you get this? Where did it come from?

[angelstar22]

Wow! This is Great. Thank you for putting it up!

[djm86]

home sweet home.

[highvibration]

I just came back from Santa Fe and went to the Georgia O'Keefe Museum, It was a magical place. She is an icon and a wonderful human. Thank you for this posting!

[quantumsignature]

A kind person with an incredible gift.

[dia33386]

quantumsignature: Not sure about 'kind'! But, she was a one-of-a-kind person who travelled her own road, spoke her own mind, truly *lived* life to its fullest; and, along that way gave the world the incredible gift of art unsurpassed with such passion & beauty!

One AMAZING person!

[quantumsignature]

When you have a gift to share with the world it shows in so many ways. With Georgia she had a strong personnality and a clear sense of direction. The kindness I refer to is the art and the expression of life shared with others in the scope of her life.

[cyndalee]

Completely lovely.... what a jewel to discover on You Tube.

[cyanhuro]

Cuanto más lo veo... más me gusta!

¿Podría alguien darme más información sobre su procedencia?

[cyanhuro]

¡La ocasión genial de poder ver y escuchar a esta maravillosa artista!

[emgaines]

i love this movie...we watched it in class, and i was inspired to do my research project on her just to learn more about her. she is a very interesting woman.

[sherriwestfall]

Thank you so much for posting this video, I have read books about her life, it's fantastic to be able to hear her and watch her. thanks

[Pondwhelk]

oh what a treat! thank you!

[tommy30507]

I love this film. Many times I have borrowed it from my local library. I am sure I have watched it at least 12 times in it entirety. Thanks for posting it. Hopefully, many others will be inspired to learn more about this wonderful lady.

[clemspal]

marvelous !!!
