Which museum founded in 1997 is dedicated primarily to Georgia O’Keeffe?

The Georgia O’Keeffe Museum, founded in 1997, is dedicated primarily to Georgia O’Keeffe.

The museum opened in Santa Fe, New Mexico, on July 17, 1997, eleven years after O’Keeffe’s death. It preserves and presents the largest public collection of her work, including paintings, drawings, and sculpture. The collection covers her career from early abstraction through her New Mexico years.

The museum’s campus includes historic buildings in Santa Fe, while the organization also operates the Georgia O’Keeffe Home and Studio in Abiquiú. That home is managed as a historic site and offers insight into the spaces and objects that surrounded her later life.

The museum is distinct from the Museum of Fine Arts in Santa Fe and from the New Mexico Museum of Art. Its focused mission makes it a central institution for studying O’Keeffe’s methods, influences, and place in American modernism.
