Question
This artist said of Peru, “the desert is more desert” and called Inca stonework “the finest thing I saw from the hand of man” on a trip that also produced a painting of Machu Picchu in “the morning light.” It’s not Joseph Cornell, but this artist wrote a letter to a young Yayoi Kusama that gave her the confidence to move to New York. This artist received an all-expenses-paid trip to Hawaii for an ad campaign but produced no relevant paintings, forcing (*) Dole to ship her a reference pineapple in the mail. The view from a plane inspired this painter to create a series that includes a painting at the Art Institute of Chicago that was on loan there for 10 years because it was too large to fit into the SFMOMA. This artist of the Sky Above Clouds series spent four decades at her adobe home in Abiquiú (“AB-uh-kyoo”). For 10 points, name this artist who painted many massive landscapes at her summer home in Ghost Ranch. ■END■
