Which museum in Santa Fe preserves Georgia O'Keeffe's legacy?

The story behind the answer

The Georgia O'Keeffe Museum in Santa Fe preserves Georgia O'Keeffe's artistic legacy.

The museum opened in 1997, eleven years after O'Keeffe's death. It holds the largest collection in the world dedicated to her work and presents paintings, drawings, photographs, and other materials connected with her career.

The museum's holdings cover the full span of O'Keeffe's art, from early abstractions and New York subjects to flowers, bones, and New Mexico landscapes. Its programs also include research, education, and exhibitions about modern American art.

The museum should not be confused with the New Mexico Museum of Art, another important Santa Fe institution. O'Keeffe's former home and studio in Abiquiú is separately managed and is also open to visitors at designated times.
