Derweil im Leben von Alfred Stieglitz
Das ganze LebenAugust 1912
A Camera Work issue on Matisse and Picasso
By the summer of 1912 Stieglitz was so enthralled with non-photographic art that he devoted the August issue of Camera Work entirely to Matisse and Picasso.
1913
The Armory Show, and his own photographs at 291
Stieglitz lent works from 291 to the organisers, Walter Pach, Arthur B. Davies and Walt Kuhn, and was listed as an honorary vice-president of the exhibition along with Claude Monet, Odilon Redon, Mabel Dodge and Isabella Stewart Gardner. He saw the Armory Show, which opened in February 1913, as a vindication of his five years of work at 291, where he simultaneously showed his own photographs so that the public could see photographs and modern paintings side by side.
1914
African sculpture and children's drawings at 291
In 1914 Stieglitz presented African sculpture to the public, followed by children's drawings.
January – May 1916
Meets Georgia O'Keeffe
In January 1916 the suffragist Anita Pollitzer showed Stieglitz a set of charcoal drawings by Georgia O'Keeffe, and he decided to exhibit them at 291 without meeting her or asking her permission. In late May O'Keeffe heard of it from a friend and came to the gallery to chastise him, which is how they met; by the summer of 1917 they were writing each other their most private thoughts.
