The Georgia O'Keeffe Museum is dedicated to perpetuating the artistic legacy of Georgia O'Keeffe and to the study and interpretation of American Modernism (1890s-present). It is the only art museum in the world dedicated to the work of a woman artist of international stature. The Museum's permanent collection of O'Keeffe's work is the largest of any museum in the world. With more than 3,000 works in the collection and 1,149 paintings, drawings, and sculptures by O'Keeffe, the Museum's holdings represent the largest repository of her work available to the public in a single institution. Subjects range from the artist's iconic flowers and bleached desert skulls to nudes, landscapes, cityscapes, still lifes, and abstractions, dating from 1901 to 1984. Highlights of the collection include: Black Lines, 1916; Blue II, 1916; Sunrise and Little Clouds No. II, 1916; Nude Series XII, 1917; Evening Star No. VI, 1917; Portrait - W - No. III, 1917; Untitled (Abstraction/Portrait of Paul Strand), 1917; Three Women, 1918; Woman with Blue Shawl, 1918; Series I - From the Plains, 1919; Calla Lily Turned Away, 1923; Calla Lily in Tall Glass - No. 2, 1923; Storm Cloud, Lake George, 1923; Autumn Trees, The Maple, 1924; Petunia No. 2, 1924; A Street, 1926; Abstraction White, 1927; Abstraction White Rose, 1927; Dark Iris No. III, 1927; Black Hollyhock, Blue Larkspur, 1929; On the Old Road to Santa Fe, 1930/31; Jimson Weed, 1932; Red Hills and White Flower, 1937; Bella Donna, 1939; Black Place III, 1944; Pelvis Series Red and Yellow, 1945; and, My Last Door, 1954.

Marion, The Stephane Janssen Trust, Anne W. Phillips, and Clare and Eugene Thaw. The Museum building was designed by architect Richard Gluckman, whose projects have included the recent gallery addition at the Whitney Museum of American Art's permanent collection in New York and the Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The Museum's orientation video was produced and directed by Perry Miller Adato, an award winning producer. She has received the Directors Guild of America Award for Outstanding Television Documentary and the DuPont/Columbia Award for her film: Picasso-a Painter's Diary, as well as several Emmy nominations. An audio tour guide of the Museum is available to visitors. The curators of exhibitions narrate the tour, describing and providing background information for works on view. Education and outreach programs at the Museum include internships, teacher workshops and seminars, summer and after-school arts programs for young people, a lecture series and development of a specialized school curriculum. The Georgia O'Keeffe Museum Research Center opened in summer of 2001. It provides stipends to scholars to pursue projects relevant to the study of American Modernism (1890s-present) and to the art and life of Georgia O'Keeffe. Areas of study include art history, architectural history and design, literature, music, and photography. The Museum Shop carries a wide variety of merchandise including posters, catalogues, books, note cards, jewelry, postcards, glass and ceramic pieces, and other gift items.Georgia O'Keeffe Museum Address
