Barbara Buhler Lynes is the curator of the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum in Santa Fe, New Mexico, and the Emily Fisher Landau Director, Georgia O'Keeffe Museum Research Center. She is the leading expert on the art of painter Georgia O'Keeffe. She holds doctoral degrees in French Literature and Art History and has written books, book chapters, essays, and numerous exhibition catalogues on O'Keeffe and other American modernists, including the 1999 catalogue raisonné that documents and authenticates O'Keeffe's extensive oeuvre.

Born in 1887, Georgia O'Keeffe first came to the attention of the New York art community in 1916, several decades after women had gained access to art training in America's colleges and universities, and before any of its women artists were well known or highly celebrated. Within a decade, however, she had distinguished herself as one of America's most important modern artists, a position she maintained throughout her life. As a result, O'Keeffe not only carved out a significant place for women painters in an area of the American art community that had been exclusive to and is still dominated by men, but also she had become one of America's most celebrated cultural icons well before her death at age 98 in 1986.
This historical retrospective held in partnership with the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum of Santa Fe, New Mexico, explores the complex universe of this artist who changed the history of modern art through her vision of the natural and architectural forms of the world.
