The Georgia O\u2019Keeffe Museum is pleased to present David Bradley After Georgia O\u2019Keeffe from September 25, 2015 to January 10, 2016 in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Bradley\u2019s 2007 painting O\u2019Keeffe After Whistler, on loan from the Denver Art Museum as part of an ongoing exchange, is the focus of this special presentation. Installed with related artwork from the museum\u2019s collection such as Philippe Halsman\u2019s 1948 portrait of O\u2019Keeffe, and her painting Above The Clouds I, along with paintings of calla lilies, the Pedernal, and rocks. An entertaining homage, the gathering demonstrates Bradley\u2019s specific and nuanced understanding of O\u2019Keeffe\u2019s life and art.<\/div>\n
\n

Bradley (Anishinaabe) has lived and worked in Santa Fe since he came to study at the Institute of American Indian Art in 1977. Early in his career, Bradley began to picture O\u2019Keeffe in his narrative paintings. He often portrays her in front of her easel, alone in her studio or within the storied landscapes of her artwork.<\/p>\n

If you look closely, you will find O\u2019Keeffe in four of Bradley\u2019s paintings on view through January 16, 2016, at the Museum of Indian Arts and Culture in the exhibition Indian Country: The Art of David Bradley. The retrospective spans Bradley\u2019s career, including abstract paintings and sculpture, in addition to his paintings of characters from art history and popular culture socializing with recognizable Santa Fe locals.<\/p>\n

David Bradley After Georgia O\u2019Keeffe was organized by Georgia O\u2019Keeffe Museum curator Carolyn Kastner who states, \u201cDavid Bradley is a master story teller in the tradition of the Anishinaabe trickster Naanabozho; guided by his astute powers of observation and a keen sense of irony he creates vividly detailed paintings of delight and wonder.\u201d<\/p>\n

Also on view, From New York to New Mexico: Masterworks of American Modernism from the Vilcek Collection<\/em> opening September 25, 2015 through January 10, 2016.<\/p>\n
