Georgia O'Keeffe Museum

Georgia O'Keeffe Museum Explore the remarkable life of Georgia O’Keeffe. The Georgia O'Keeffe Museum in Santa Fe, New Mexico, opened to the public in July 1997, eleven years after the death of the artist from whom it takes its name.

Welcoming visitors from all over the world, it is the only museum in the United States dedicated to an internationally-known woman artist.

Our 2021 Art & Leadership Program is underway!

This program provides participants in Santa Fe, ages 11-13 years, with opportunities for independent thinking, skill-building, problem solving and the development of their artistic talents. The program focuses on self-discovery and the exploration of creativity through art making, writing, music, and movement exercises.

The program offers a safe space and open platform for self-expression and inquiry by facilitating an environment that can accommodate discussions in a mature way on topics such as stereotypes, race, class, and gender norms with the goals of working towards healthy self-esteem and positive leadership skills.

Teachers in Santa Fe area schools nominate children who are leaving Elementary School to participate in the O’Keeffe Art & Leadership Programs the summer before they join Middle School. These students are then invited to participate in the Art & Leadership program free of charge for every summer until they join High School. Pre-adolescent youth who are interested in art who reside in Santa Fe and surrounding rural communities are given priority for attendance.

The COVID-19 Pandemic has created a unique opportunity for the O’Keeffe Museum to re-examine the longstanding gender-based model of the Art and Leadership Program. This has been a difficult time for New Mexico children and their families, and the arts has been a place of respite for so many. The creation of much smaller pods of students – regardless of gender identity – allows participants and staff to maintain a safe distance from one another and pivot if health mandates require.

Motivational Mondays with O’Keeffe

“Making your unknown known is the important thing – and keeping the unknown always beyond you.” – Georgia O’Keeffe

Georgia O’Keeffe had an appetite for adventure, which is clearly presented in this photograph taken by O’Keeffe’s friend Maria Chabot.

O’Keeffe was driven by her passion for living and her desire to examine the unfamiliar, always chasing the unknown.

As we enter a new week, how are you spending it? Be inspired by O’Keeffe’s adventuresome spirit and try something new.

Following Enchantment's Line

Join us Thursday, June 24th, at 6:00 PM MDT for an evening of dance and beauty. The event will include the premiere of Following Enchantment’s Line followed by a panel discussion with the artists.

The Wheelwright Museum of the American Indian and the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum have partnered to produce a short film, Following Enchantment’s Line, celebrating the diverse cultural connections of Santa Fe, New Mexico.

Following Enchantment’s Line draws inspiration from the lines, shadows, and light seen across the northern New Mexico landscape which has influenced many artists throughout time.

Directed by acclaimed filmmaker and artist Steven J. Yazzie (Diné/Laguna Pueblo/Anglo), the film showcases nationally renowned dancers Jock Soto (Navajo/Puerto Rican) and Harrison Coll. The soundscape features the music of classical composer Jerod Impichchaachaaha’ Tate (Chickasaw Nation). Coll has studied dance with Soto for 17 years at the School of American Ballet, the official school of New York City Ballet. This project marks the first time they are performing together.

Georgia O’Keeffe’s fascination with shells began in her childhood, though she grew up far from the ocean in rural Wisconsin.

The artist recalls, “When I was small and went to visit my O’Keeffe grandmother [father's mother], I sometimes got into the parlor by myself and would take a shell from the ‘whatnot,’ a set of fancy shelves between two windows. The shelves held many things I was not to touch but when I got in there alone I would take a shell from the whatnot and hold it close to my ear. I had been told that the sound I heard was the sound of the sea – I had not heard the sea at that time but it was wonderful to me to listen to it in the shell. So when I grew up and went where there were shells I was always looking for them.”

O'Keeffe began a some of her earliest seashell depictions in 1926 during a series of trips to coastal Maine and Lake George, New York. At the time, she was just beginning to come into her own style. Her focus on shells and other aquatic subject matter, were often done on an intimate scale, demonstrating the tenuous balance she was exploring between abstraction and realism.

Later in life, O’Keeffe reflected on shells as subject matter, “I have picked up shells along the coast of Maine – farther south, in the Bermudas and Bahamas I found conch shells along the pure sandy beaches. Then when I was in Yucatan out on the beach from Merida there were fine bleached white shells in the undergrowth where the water must have washed them up… Each shell was a beautiful world in itself… Even now, living in the desert, the sea comes back to me when I hold one to my ear.”

Where in the world have you collected seashells? Let us know in the comments! 💙

06/04/2021

“When I first saw the Abiquiu house it was a ruin with an adobe wall around the garden broken in a couple places by falling trees. As I climbed and walked about in the ruin I found a patio with a very pretty well house and bucket to draw up water. It was a good sized patio with a long wall with a door on one side. The wall with a door in it was something I had to have. It took me ten years to get it—three more years to fix up the house so I could live in it—and after that the wall with a door was painted many times.” - Georgia O'Keeffe⁠
⁠
The black door would prove to be an endless source of inspiration for O’Keeffe, who executed twenty-two paintings of the subject between 1946 and 1960. Painted black, the entryway acts as a stark contrast for the earthy amber of the adobe walls, and O’Keeffe employed this feature to divide the compositional space in every one of her Patio paintings. ⁠

O’Keeffe was deeply affected by elements from nature that surrounded her; we certainly know that she painted the details she observed in a flower, but she also collected other natural items such as rocks, shells, sun-bleached bones, and feathers.

“I have wanted to paint the desert and I haven’t known how. I always think that I cannot stay with it long enough. So I brought home the bleached bones as my symbols of the desert. To me they are as beautiful as anything I know. To me they are strangely more living than the animals walking around–hair, eyes and all with their tails switching. The bones seem to cut sharply to the center of something that is keenly alive on the desert even though it is vast and empty and untouchable–and knows no kindness with all its beauty.” Georgia O'Keeffe, 1943.

Building Home - Construction of O'Keeffe's Home and Studio
Building Home - Construction of O'Keeffe's Home and Studio

The Abiquiú area has been inhabited for over 5,000 years by various groups of indigenous peoples as evidenced by archeological and oral history data. Abiquiú is a Tewa name with various meanings. The indigenous people of Ohkay Owingeh Pueblo call it P’efubu’u which means the end of a log or stick, a projection of mesa land, or end of timber town. In 1945, Georgia O'Keeffe purchased the 4.75-acre Home & Studio property in Abiquiú from the Archdiocese of Santa Fe. At the time, the site was a ruin. A three-year process transformed the abandoned site into the iconic modernist adobe compound we see today. O'Keeffe lived in the home until the end of her life. O'Keeffe hired her friend Maria Chabot, a Texas native and student of regional architecture with experience managing large properties, to oversee the reconstruction of the house. They relied on a local crew to rebuild the structure using traditional techniques and knowledge of vernacular materials such as adobe brick construction, viga and latila roofing, and other design elements that have generally come to be known as the Pueblo Revival style. The O'Keeffe Museum is committed to the ongoing preservation needs of this historic property and works with conservation experts and members of the local community to research and maintain the artist's home.

Watering O'Keeffe's Garden
Watering O'Keeffe's Garden

“Water is a living thing, hence its form is deep and quiet, or soft and smooth, or broad and ocean-like, or thick like flesh.” - Georgia O'Keeffe ◦ On Monday mornings between 8:00 and 11:00 AM, you can watch as O'Keeffe's Home and Studio garden in Abiquiú is flood irrigated by the historic acequia. ◦ ⁠ Acequia systems consist of gravity-fed earthen canals that divert stream flow for distribution to fields and gardens. They are a community resource that local irrigators have a shared right to use, and a responsibility to manage, and protect.⁠ ◦ ⁠ Acequia agroecosystems promote soil conservation and soil formation, provide terrestrial wildlife habitat and movement corridors; protect water quality and fish habitat, promote the conservation of domesticated biodiversity of land race heirloom crops, and encourage the maintenance of a strong land and water ethic and sense of place, among other ecological and economic values. ◦ ⁠ The acequia that provides water to the Abiquiú Home & Studio is sourced from the Upper Rio Grande watershed. It is one of the Museum's most precious resources, as it allows for O'Keeffe's unique and productive garden to flourish, while serving as a teaching tool for youth in our community. It also serves as a source of beauty for all those who have a chance to experience it in person. ◦ ⁠ You can watch the garden any time by visiting gokm.org/abiquiu-camera.⁠ ◦ ◦ ⁠ What does water mean to you?

National Library Week is April 19 - 25, 2020! To kick things off, check out this short clip from inside of Georgia O’Keeffe’s book room at the artist’s Home and Studio in Abiquiú. Due to the fragility of the space, this room is one rarely seen by the public. Our team at the Museum is working hard to document and catalog O’Keeffe’s immense collection of books and share their findings with the world. From cookbooks, to magazines, to unique out-of-print publications, the Abiquiú book room gives us incredible insight into O’Keeffe’s interests and curiosities. National Library Week is a time to celebrate the contributions of our nation's libraries and library workers and to promote library use and support. From free access to books and online resources for families to library business centers that help support entrepreneurship and retraining, libraries offer opportunity to all. To celebrate, we will be sharing all the wonderful things our team at the O’Keeffe Museum’s is doing to support and advance our understanding of Georgia O’Keeffe, as well as uplifting the work of our local libraries in New Mexico and other great institutions across the country.

Abiquiú Home and Studio Spring Fly By
Abiquiú Home and Studio Spring Fly By

Spring in Northern New Mexico is a season of contradictions. One moment the sun in shining and white fluffy clouds pop against impossibly blue skies, the next moment it’s frigidly cold, and the landscape is covered in a thick layer of snow. The wind can be especially fierce in springtime, sending enormous tumbleweeds flying across the land. Though when the trees come to life, they carpet the high desert in vibrant, technicolor green. The view from the O’Keeffe’s Home and Studio in Abiquiú provided the artist with endless sources of inspiration. O’Keeffe was intimately familiar with the ebb and flow of seasons in this part of the world, and her depictions of the New Mexico landscape at different times of year powerfully evoke a sense of place. In this video, you can get a sense of what she experienced in the springtime. Located about 50 miles northwest of Santa Fe, O’Keeffe’s Abiquiú home exemplifies the artist’s singular aesthetic and was the location where she created some of her most significant works, such as the ‘In The Patio,’ and ‘Cottonwood’ series of paintings. O’Keeffe’s Home and Studio is National Historic Landmark and a living example of the beauty of this country. What’s your favorite season?

Summer in Georgia O'Keeffe's Abiquiú Garden
Summer in Georgia O'Keeffe's Abiquiú Garden

In the verdant walled yard behind Georgia O’Keeffe’s house in Abiquiú, lies the artist’s spectacular garden. A raised walkway cuts through the center of the vegetable garden, bisecting the long, rectangular plot. Tall sunflowers dot the garden between patches of herbs, leafy greens, peppers, an assortment of other edible plants. It is fed water by an elegant stone irrigation canal channels, a communal resource known as an acequia. In 1945, O’Keeffe purchased a run-down adobe house in Abiquiu and took the next four years to renovate the building. In her original renovation plans, O’Keeffe included detailed drawings for the vegetable garden. Her meticulous notes recorded the plant varieties she grew after moving in, and her bookshelves bore tomes on organic gardening and composting. The garden at her Abiquiú home remains much as it was during her lifetime. You can view the Museum’s live feed, captured by a video camera installed on the roof of Georgia O’Keeffe’s home in Abiquiú. The camera runs year round, documenting daily and seasonal changes in the garden. What are you growing in your garden or in your home?

“When you start making a home, it is difficult to stop changing it, imagining it different.” - Georgia O’Keeffe Though modest in appearance, it exudes a certain harmony, as if every element were in its proper place, reflecting O'Keeffe's attention to detail. Interior furnishings do not follow a particular style. Simple furnishings represents years of collecting, including an Eames chair in her living room which was a birthday gift from the designers, as well as an Eero Saarinen coffee table and a Noguchi lampshade she hung over one of the bare light bulbs, O'Keeffe never kept anything she couldn't live with. As O’Keeffe wrote: “My house in Abiquiu is pretty empty; only what I need is in it.” The uncluttered spaces, and simple adornments and furniture O'Keeffe favored demonstrate how her life in New Mexico was itself a component of the minimalistic aesthetic that is one of the distinguishing features of her art.

O’Keeffe’s drawing practice was the lens for each new experience and her sketches form a journal of her explorations. The artist was steadfast in her commitment to the discipline of drawing, which she adopted early in her career. To understand the richness of Georgia O’Keeffe’s artistic practice, one must understand her disciplined drawing practice and her innovative sense for composition through paintings and drawings that span her career. One can see how O'Keeffe became a master by exploring the artist's preliminary sketches and drawings, and how they translate to the fluid, seemingly effortless outlines that define regions of her compositions. Talent like O'Keeffe's isn't born. It is made, cultivated, and practiced over decades, and through uncompromised commitment to craft. What skill do you practice over and over again?

Though modest in appearance, O’Keeffe’s homes exude a certain harmony, as if every element were in its proper place, reflecting O'Keeffe's attention to detail.⁠ Displayed on the mantel and windowsills, as well as on the naturally grained cedar ledge encircling the room, are gnarled branches and animal bones, reminiscent of the objects that she scavenged from the desert. ⁠ ⁠ Her daily routine here was marked by her reverence for simple rituals and an inner clarity that allowed her to be fully present in each moment. She would rise early and take a long walk before breakfast, accompanied by her dogs. After breakfast, she would venture back into the desert for a day of painting, often using her Model A Ford as a portable studio. Upon returning home, she would take an evening walk before dinner. The lasting impression of O'Keeffe's legendary life and art, and the Abiquiú and Ghost Ranch homes that stood at its center, is that of a woman completely at ease with the natural world and with herself.⁠ ⁠ What is your favorite aspect of O'Keeffe's lifestyle?

Santa Fe and Abiquiú are located in the high desert. While hot summers, blazing sun, and blue skies are common, this part of northern New Mexico truly experiences all four seasons - sometimes all at the same time! Georgia O'Keeffe's home at Ghost Ranch is surrounded by stunning landscape that is constantly changing. It is easy to see why this place served as an ongoing inspiration for the artist. This time lapse shows a snow storm as it comes and goes over the Pedernal mountain and O'Keeffe's front porch.

As with her art, her aesthetic, and her public image, Georgia O'Keeffe lived every aspect of her life with great intention. This extended into her kitchen.⁠ ⁠ Cooking, nutrition, and health were all of great interest and importance to O'Keeffe. From organic gardening, canning and pickling, grinding wheat, and making yogurt—she did it all.⁠ ⁠ O'Keeffe liked her food cooked simply and loved the flavors of fresh herbs and produce. She was especially fond of summer salads. She enjoyed vegetables steamed until cooked, but still crisp, and served with just a splash of butter or oil, salt, and pepper. She wanted their distinct flavors to shine through.⁠ ⁠ With Thanksgiving just a few days away, enjoy these stunning images of O’Keeffe's kitchen!⁠ ⁠ What is your favorite Thanksgiving or harvest season dish?

Contemporary Voices: Ken Price Closing October 31, 2019! As part of its Contemporary Voices series, the O’Keeffe Museum presents work by Ken Price (1935-2012). One of the foremost American sculptors of his day, Price was also an accomplished graphic artist. Ten ceramic sculptures by Price, a longtime resident of Taos, New Mexico, will be displayed on pedestals throughout the Museum’s galleries. The organic, sensual forms, and chromatic complexity of Price’s sculptures will be paired and juxtaposed with O’Keeffe’s still life and landscape subjects, inviting visitors to view both artists in a new light. Watercolors by Georgia O’Keeffe will be presented alongside kindred works on paper, an homage to the high desert, by Ken Price. #GeorgiaOKeeffe All works © Georgia O’Keeffe Museum or © Ken Price except for the following: Georgia O'Keeffe.

Our Story

The Georgia O’Keeffe Museum, in Santa Fe, New Mexico, opened to the public in July 1997, eleven years after the death of our namesake artist. A visit to the O’Keeffe Museum offers insight not only into the artist’s paintings, but also her creative process and the light and landscape that inspired her. In addition to the main Museum campus in Santa Fe, the O’Keeffe Museum maintains O’Keeffe’s two homes and studios in northern New Mexico, a research center and library, and a variety of collections relating to O’Keeffe and modern art.

One of the most significant artists of the 20th century, Georgia O’Keeffe (1887-1986) was devoted to creating imagery that expressed what she called “the wideness and wonder of the world as I live in it.” O’Keeffe’s images—instantly recognizable as her own —include abstractions, large-scale depictions of flowers, leaves, rocks, shells, bones and other natural forms, New York cityscapes and paintings of the unusual shapes and colors of architectural and landscape forms of northern New Mexico.

The Museum’s collections of over 3,000 works comprises 140 O’Keeffe oil paintings, nearly 700 drawings, and hundreds of additional works dating from 1901 to 1984, the year failing eyesight forced O’Keeffe into retirement. Throughout the year, visitors can see a changing selection of these works. In addition, the Museum presents exhibitions that are either devoted entirely to O’Keeffe’s work or combine examples of her art with works by her American modernist contemporaries.

In 2006, the Museum took responsibility for the care and preservation of O’Keeffe’s home and studio along the Chama River in Abiquiu, New Mexico, about an hour north of Santa Fe. A national historic landmark and one of the most important artistic sites in the United States, the home where the artist lived and worked is open for tours by appointment. O’Keeffe’s first home in New Mexico, about 30 minutes northwest of Abiquiu at the Ghost Ranch is also cared for by the Museum though it is not currently open to the public.

I remember when Miss O'Keeffe said, "I lived through 2 wars, a depression, and Stieglitz." If she was alive now, she would have a fourth ordeal to mention.
Thought you all would want to know if you didn't before..
May be of interest... https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=10158137239062369&substory_index=0&id=27029077368
Having just finished Britta Benke's 2018 book "O'Keeffe", I was curious to learn more about the artist's time in southern Virginia, specifically when she attended Chatham Episcopal Institute. It turns out this school is still very much in business, and quite proud of its O'Keeffe connection.
Just Bought another O’Keeffe book yesterday - just can’t get enough!

This is one of the best museum pages I've seen. It does honor to both Georgia O'Keeffe and your museum. There is very little clutter. Examples of your collection are ample. The most impressive aspect of your page is the artwork and its relation to the landscape. For someone in New Jersey, this relationship is important to understanding her art.
Well my feed glitches out, but "In the Patio" that you posted today was from the San Diego Museum of Art.
