Which museum holds the largest public collection of Georgia O'Keeffe's works?

The story behind the answer

The Georgia O'Keeffe Museum holds the largest public collection of her works.

The museum opened in Santa Fe, New Mexico, in 1997, eleven years after O'Keeffe's death. Its collection includes paintings, drawings, watercolors, photographs, and personal materials connected with her life and career. The institution also operates historic sites associated with O'Keeffe in northern New Mexico.

O'Keeffe spent much of her later life in New Mexico, and the museum's location reflects the importance of that region to her art. Its exhibitions place her work in context with modernism, the American Southwest, and the artists, photographers, and galleries that shaped her career.

The museum is not the same institution as the Museum of Modern Art, which organized O'Keeffe's major 1946 retrospective. Nor is it simply a house museum: it is a dedicated art museum with a substantial research and exhibition program.
