Nobody Sees A Flower with 44.4 Mother/Artist Collective
Nobody Sees A Flower with 44.4 Mother/Artist Collective
Wednesday, February 28th, at 7 pm EST on Zoom
For this months Between Us: Makers in Conversation series, we will be celebrating the 44.4 Mother/Artist Collective and speaking with them about their upcoming exhibition Nobody Sees A Flower .
The 44.4 Mother/Artist Collective is a growing group of women artists bridging motherhood and art, their collective shares knowledge, supports creative self-actualization, and empowers professional advancement and collaborate on unique exhibitions while exploring their unique lived experiences as Mother/Artists.
In their upcoming exhibition titled Nobody Sees a Flower, 44.4 members respond to Georgia O’Keefe’s Jimson Weed/White Flower No.1 (1932). Jimson Weed/White Flower No. 1 holds significance to the collective as its purchase price, $44.4 million, is where they got their name. $44.4 million is the most expensive work by a woman artist ever sold at auction. A decade later, this record remains unbroken. Nobody Sees a Flower is on view at the Ottawa Art Gallery from March 1-31, 2024.
“Nobody sees a flower really; it is so small.” – Georgia O’Keeffe, An American Place exhibition catalogue, 1939
