Which New York art museum gave Georgia O’Keeffe a retrospective exhibition in 1946?

The Museum of Modern Art gave Georgia O’Keeffe a retrospective exhibition in 1946.

The Museum of Modern Art in New York presented a major O’Keeffe retrospective in 1946. The exhibition was organized by the museum’s founding director, Alfred H. Barr Jr., and recognized the importance of her work within American modernism.

The retrospective was a significant institutional milestone because O’Keeffe had already established a distinctive career through abstract paintings, enlarged flowers, New York subjects, and images associated with the Southwest.

It is easy to confuse this exhibition with O’Keeffe retrospectives at other museums. The Whitney Museum held an important retrospective in 1970, while MoMA’s 1946 exhibition was the earlier landmark named in this question.
