Georgia OâKeeffe mistrusted words. She claimed color as her language. Nevertheless, in the course of her long life, the great American painter wrote thousands of lettersâ"more than two thousand survive between her and her husband, Alfred Stieglitz, alone. Jennifer Sinorâs Letters Like the Day honors OâKeeffe, her modernist landscapes, and, crucially, the value of letter writing. In the painterâs correspondence, we find an intimacy with words that is all her own. Taking her letters as a touchstone, Sinor experiments with the limits of language using the same aesthetic that drove OâKeeffeâs art. Through magnification, cropping, and juxtapositionâ"hallmarks of modernismâ"Sinor explores the larger truths at the center of OâKeeffeâs work: how we see, capture, and create. Letters Like the Day pursues the highest function of artâ"to take oneâs medium to the edge and then push beyond.
