Letters and documentary editions provide the clearest access to Georgia O’Keeffe’s own voice on art and life. My Faraway One, edited by Sarah Greenough, collects correspondence between O’Keeffe and Alfred Stieglitz and reveals the relationship alongside discussions of work, travel, separation and artistic ambition. Georgia O’Keeffe: Art and Letters and other documentary editions bring together her own words with reproductions or contextual material. The writing is direct, personal and often practical, providing a different view from monographs written about her paintings of flowers, New Mexico landscapes and abstract forms. Books under O’Keeffe’s name fit artists’ correspondence, American modernism, art history and primary-source collections, with editorial apparatus important for understanding the circumstances of the letters.
