Georgia O'Keeffe — Nuque

1921
Not on view
De 1917 à 1937, Alfred Stieglitz fit plus de trois cents photographies de Georgia O’Keeffe, dont celle-ci, pour brosser un extraordinaire portrait composite. Selon lui, un portrait devait rendre compte de l’expérience vécue par le sujet et réunir en une mosaïque des mouvements expressifs, des émotions et des gestes qui, ensemble, évoqueraient sa vie. « Attendre d’un portrait qu’il représente totalement une personne, c’est aussi futile que d’exiger qu’une seule photographie de plateau condense tout un film », disait-il.
