About the Exhibition

The FAC is proud to be one of only four institutions in the US to host Eloquent Objects: Georgia O’Keeffe and Still-Life Art in New Mexico this June 27 through Sept 13.

This first-of-its-kind exhibition will feature more than 40 magnificent paintings by O’Keeffe and her contemporaries — artists she influenced and those who influenced her — a rare opportunity to see works on loan from major museums and private collections.
