The Georgia O'Keeffe Museum Research Center sponsors research in American Modernism (1890-present) by awarding scholarships to historians in the fields of art, architecture & design, literature, music, and photography and to museum professionals who wish to organize an exhibition at the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum. Located in downtown Santa Fe, New Mexico, the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum Research Center provides office space for scholars, a research library, and an archive of materials relating to O'Keeffe and her contemporaries. Scholars proposing topics that specifically address O'Keeffe and her art also have access to the extensive collection of art works in the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum and to the Ghost Ranch House, another component of the Research Center. The Georgia O'Keeffe Museum Research Center is pleased to announce the recipients of the 2008-2009 scholarships.
