Which university employed Georgia O'Keeffe as an art instructor from 1912 to 1914?

The University of Virginia employed Georgia O'Keeffe as an art instructor from 1912 to 1914.

O'Keeffe taught art at the university in Charlottesville after studying and working in several parts of the United States. Her teaching career was significant because it overlapped with the period when she was developing a more personal and experimental approach to drawing and painting.

During these years, she also spent summers teaching in Virginia and became increasingly dissatisfied with academic conventions that emphasized copying established artistic styles. Her search for a more individual language eventually led to the abstract charcoal drawings that attracted Alfred Stieglitz's attention.

O'Keeffe later taught at Columbia University Teachers College and at the University of South Carolina. These positions are sometimes mixed together in brief biographies, but the 1912–1914 appointment belongs to the University of Virginia.
