 Arnold Newman, “Georgia O’Keeffe, Ghost Ranch, New Mexico,” 1968, Portland Museum of Art, Maine. Gift of the artist for the Ernst Haas Memorial Collection. | Georgia O’Keeffe and the Camera: The Art of Identity June 12, 2008 - September 7, 2008 This exhibition of 60 photographs of Georgia O’Keeffe and 18 works by the artist addresses the relationship between her art and photographs made of her over the course of a long career. For the first time, the exhibition pairs paintings and photographs to establish two opposing public images of the artist. Georgia O’Keeffe and the Camera includes works by famous photographers such as Ansel Adams, Alfred Stieglitz, Eliot Porter, Todd Webb, and Arnold Newman. The exhibition will also include examples of O’Keeffe’s paintings and works on paper that mark major moments in the development of her art: the early abstract drawings, the first landscapes in New Mexico from the 1930s, and the late architectural studies of her homes at the Ghost Ranch and Abiquiu.
