Tewa Nangeh/Tewa Country, The Georgia O’Keeffe Museum

At Santa Fe’s Georgia O’Keeffe Museum this show honors Tewa people, art, culture, and landscapes, while drawing awareness to the erasure of the Tewa presence from the story of Georgia O’Keeffe in Northern New Mexico. Co-curated by artist Jason Garcia (Santa Clara Pueblo) and Bess Murphy, Luce Curator of Art and Social Practice at the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum, the exhibition features artists, scholars, and culture bearers from the six Tewa Pueblos of Northern New Mexico: Nambé, Ohkay Owingeh, Pojoaque, San Ildefonso, Santa Clara, and Tesuque.

While Georgia O’Keeffe frequently claimed ownership of Northern New Mexico, this land has been the continuous home of these six Tewa Pueblos from time immemorial to the present. Tewa Nangeh/Tewa Country resituates the O’Keeffe narrative back in Tewa Country.
