Bones to pick: Obscure items in the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum

The Natural World exhibit opened just before the Georgia O’Keeffe museum closed in March. Now reopened, visitors can see O’Keeffe’s paintings paired with the bones that served as her subjects. Bones from her personal collection, along with rocks, shells, and feathers that she kept on display in her homes in Abiquiú and at Ghost Ranch. The exhibit explores the ways in which O’Keeffe treated organic materials as subjects for paintings, playing with scale, color, and abstraction. The show is a glimpse into O’Keeffe’s passion for natural subjects and is augmented by archival photographs of the artist working with her collections.

Geological field guide explains the formation of O'Keeffe and Tewa country

The guide is not centrally about art or O’Keeffe; it’s about the region’s changing landscape over 300 million years of geologic time. The region – in particular the iconic Cerro Pedernal butte – is at the juncture of the Rio Grande Rift, the Colorado Plateau and the Jemez Mountains volcanic field, geologist Kirt Kempter writes in the guide’s helpful explanatory text.
