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.

Abstract watercolor of a small adobe building which was used as a studio. The picture plane is divided into three separate organic shaped geometric elements; a fluid swash of green ground on which the adobe structure sits and a large transparent wash of blue surrounding the building as the sky. The studio itself is softened rectangle shape of transparent yellow which reveals, to the left, a brown feathered watercolor bleed as the doorway.
