Event Details

By the 1930's, Georgia O’Keeffe had fallen in love with the landscape of New Mexico, and began spending her summers there. This lecture will examine O'Keeffe's gradual move from New York to the west, her love affair with New Mexico and how it influenced her art. We will also discuss her popular landscapes and her abstract work and the influence of both of her homes, one in Abiquiu the other at Ghost Ranch. It was in these years that she cultivated a distinct image of herself and emerged as a well-known female artist.
