Porter, Gilpin, and O'Keeffe, now in Portland
Photos from two of the Carter’s largest artists’ archives are now on view at the Portland Museum of Art (Portland, Maine, that is) in the exhibition Georgia O’Keeffe and the Camera: The Art of Identity.
Both Laura Gilpin and Eliot Porter spent time with O’Keeffe at her home in Abiquiu, New Mexico in the 1940s-1960s and the Carter’s photography collection contains several examples from both artists. The following four photos will be on view at the Portland Museum of Art through September 7:
