Description
"A groundbreaking exhibition, O'Keeffe and Moore compares the work of two iconic modernists: American painter Georgia O'Keeffe and British sculptor Henry Moore, uniting the work of these artists for the first time and re-creating their studios in the Museum with their original studio contents, tools, and furnishings. See more than 120 works of art by the two artists, on loan from nearly 30 museums, institutions, and lenders, and compare the two artists' working methods, exploration of found objects, and juxtaposition of unlikely forms."--
