Eisler, Benita. [O'Keeffe, Georgia, 1887-1986] [Steiglitz, Alfred, 1864-1946]
O'Keeffe & Stieglitz. An American Romance.
Publisher: N.Y., Doubleday, 1991.
x, 546 p. "Couched in the romance of conflict and resolution, the real drama of O'Keefe and Stieglitz, as with most couples, was collusion." The painter Georgia O'Keeffe (1887-1986) was nearly 24 years younger than photographer Alfred Stieglitz (1864-1946). Upon their meeting, he recognized a talent which he promoted through his gallery and contacts. It was a marriage of art and of admiration, maybe even love. Stock# 26,556. Vg/ dj vg.

Landgren, Marchal E.
Years of Art: The Story of the Art Students League of New York
Publisher: Robert M. McBride & Company, 1940 New York.
Book. Book condition: Very Good. No Jacket. Hardcover 4to - over 9¾ - 12" tall First edition (stated). Introduction by Walter Pach. Founded in 1875, The Art Students League offers low cost classes in many areas of art without a grading system; no degrees are offered. "..An institution like the Art Students League, having survived the vicissitudes of sixty-five years of existence, takes on, through that very fact, something of the interest, or e3ven the dignity, which attaches to matters significant of their rime and place. You may criticize it if you like. But those who ask of it a course diametrically opposed to the one you would give it are people who believe strongly in their principles, and who must have reason for them. One of the conflict of ideas as to what art is and how students of the subject should be taught, a sort of consensus of opinion emerges. It expresses itself in the choice of instructors, and in the general policy of the school.." The discussion of the school is followed by a collection of 72 black-and-white plates showing examples of the work of students, from the famous to the less famous. 116 pages + 872 plates + index. Book is in VERY GOOD condition. No dust jacket.
