The title of Georgia O'Keeffe's 1970 Whitney Museum retrospective was Georgia O'Keeffe.
The exhibition was a major survey of her career at the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York. It helped establish her importance for a new generation of viewers and artists during a period when interest in her work was growing again.
The exhibition title is simply her name, rather than a subtitle describing flowers, landscapes, or abstraction. This makes it easy to confuse with later books, catalogues, and museum exhibitions that use expanded titles.
A retrospective differs from a single-theme exhibition because it surveys an artist's work across a substantial portion of a career. O'Keeffe's Whitney show presented the breadth of her practice, including abstract works and recognizable natural forms.
