In search of new horizons, Georgia O'Keeffe made her home in the heart of New Mexico. There, alone, the artist painted and lived for nearly four decades at her beloved Ghost Ranch, set in the dry landscape of the American West.
This is how, in a Puritan country, what is considered one of the leading figures in modern art became the object of desire - and the giant flowers it painted, the reflection of its sex life.

For the artist, it was necessary to question the history of art and to understand her own way of painting, in a process that marked a break in the tradition of still life.
