Presented by Lydia Bauman

Legendary American artist Georgia O’Keeffe (1887-1986) lived in and painted the New Mexico desert over 5 decades, calling it “my backyard”. In September 2017, Lydia Bauman, herself a landscape painter, travelled in her footsteps to find the iconic landscape motifs O’Keeffe made her own. The art historian in her wanted to deepen her understanding of the famous artist, the artists in her wanted to challenge her own landscape painting practice. This is an account of her journey, her insights, her adventures, and her own resulting body of over 80 paintings inspired by Georgia O’Keeffe country, shown at a major solo exhibition in London’s Mall Galleries in 2019.
