Which museum in Santa Fe opened in 1997 as the first museum devoted to a single woman artist?

The Georgia O'Keeffe Museum opened in Santa Fe in 1997 as the first museum devoted to a single woman artist.

The museum was founded to preserve and present O'Keeffe's art, life, and creative process. Its collection includes paintings, drawings, photographs, and archival material, with particular strength in works connected to her New York and New Mexico periods.

The institution opened seven years after O'Keeffe's death and is located in the city where she spent important later years. The museum also operates the preserved Georgia O'Keeffe Home and Studio in Abiquiú, which opened for public tours in 2008.

The museum's single-artist focus distinguishes it from the Museum of New Mexico and other regional institutions. Its exhibitions place O'Keeffe within broader histories of American modernism while maintaining a concentrated view of her career.
