Join Giustina Renzoni, Curator of Historic Properties, for a talk on the new exhibition Artful Living: O’Keeffe & Modern Design. Nestled in the desert landscape of Abiquiú, Georgia O’Keeffe’s mid-century modern home defies regional norms while celebrating traditional adobe architecture. Through the furnishings and textiles featured in this exhibition, discover how O’Keeffe’s discerning eye for design transformed her home into an artist’s sanctuary that continues to inspire designers and design enthusiasts.
