페미니즘 화가들의 대표적인 인물인 조지아 오 키프가 세상 밖으로 널리 알려 진 것은 최고의 사진작가였던 스티클리츠가 경영하는 291화랑에 오 키프의 Special 연작을 전시했던 1916년이었다. 오 키프는 자신이 살고 있는 사회의 모순과 내면세계를 직시하고 분석하여 미 묘한 율동을 지닌 윤곽선으로 형태들을 그리고 그 위에 투명도가 높은 색조로 강약을 통해 원근(遠近)을 표현했다. 그녀의 그림주제는 짐승의 뼈, 두개골 식물 의 기관, 조개껍데기, 산, 등 자연을 확대시킨 것으로 율동적이고 추상적이며 신 비스럽고 때로는 상징적이다. 특히 오 키프는 현대적 여성의식으로 여성이라는 주제로 전 생애를 바쳤으며 여성들의 참 모습을 직관적으로 상징화, 이미지화하 여 대형 캔버스에 표현하였다. 이러한 그녀의 작품세계로 인해 섹슈얼리티 (Sexuality)한 작품으로 표현하는 페미니스트들의 수호신이 되었다.
This study examined a possibility of using colors in psychological diagnosis or as a treatment by analyzing O'Keeffe's works showing sensual and sexual expressions of women's sexuality through metaphorical cropped techniques( a photo technique). Her works were analyzed in terms of the characteristics of the colors, formation of the unique colors, main colors, and the analysis of her psyche along the course of her life and the time setting. Her life was divided into three periods in this study: the formation period (before she met her husband Stieglitz who caused great change in the themes and colors of her works), the passionate period (after she met her husband), and the mature period (after her husband's death). Eight of her works representing each period were chosen, which made a total of 24 paintings. The paintings were analyzed with Suenaga's Heart & Color Method. The findings of the analysis are as follows. First, in the formation period, O'Keeffe emphasized emotional richness and softness using warm and cool tones of ink and wash painting. Angled charts expressed her extraversion, Emotional softness was often expressed in her use of low saturated colors using the high and low lightness of 1 to 9 in charcoal drawing. Second, in the passionate period, she used bold colors and showed abstract expressions of objects to express women's rights and the freedom of expression. Vivid colors used in this period conveyed her mental positiveness and exuberance of energy. In difficult times, she used smoky gray tones to express her feelings, and as she survived a tumor operation, she expressed her sense of relief and hope in tender colors. Third, in the mature period, a surrealistic tendency appeared with elegant and delicate colors. Angled charts expressed extraversion. Circular charts expressed in splendid colors of nature reflected from the sunlight of New Mexico conveyed her relaxed psyche and calmly settled sensitivity coming from her free life. In tone chart, O'keeffe combined a pure 3-dimensional space with landscapes of New Mexico and images related to growth, reflecting a state of unconsciousness and consciousness of her time with colors and themes.
