Which museum in Santa Fe is dedicated to Georgia O'Keeffe's life and work?

The Georgia O’Keeffe Museum in Santa Fe is dedicated to her life and work.

The museum opened in 1997, eleven years after O’Keeffe’s death. Its collection includes paintings, drawings, sculptures, photographs, and archival materials connected with the artist. It also maintains research resources and presents exhibitions about O’Keeffe and modern art.

The museum’s location is especially appropriate because O’Keeffe spent much of her later life in New Mexico and died in Santa Fe. Her connection with the state began with visits in the 1920s and became permanent in the 1940s, when she established homes in the Abiquiú area.

The museum is distinct from the New Mexico Museum of Art, although both are in Santa Fe and both display art connected with the region. The Georgia O’Keeffe Museum focuses specifically on O’Keeffe’s career, working methods, correspondence, and visual legacy.
