Poetry in Paintings	3/12	11am	SF	Christina Cragholm '97
Georgia O'Keeffe: The Poetry of Things is the first exhibition to focus entirely on the artist's paintings of objects. This exhibition of 53 works spans the period from 1908 to 1963, and explores O'Keeffe's emotional, spiritual, and aesthetic relationships with the objects she chose to paint. In 1915 O'Keeffe divided her work into two categories: "landscapes" and "things." O'Keeffe's "things" have a decidedly organic nature and veer towards the abstract rather than the representational. Flowers, leaves, bones, shells, and fruit are among the objects explored by the artist in these works. Join fellow Princetonians on the exhibit tour, which will last about one hour and will be lead by a museum docent. The cost for members varies, because if an alumnus is a member of the Fine Arts Museums, then the cost is $5. The general adult admission fee is $16, and the senior citizen (65+) rate is $14. Please RSVP by sending a check, made out to "PCNC", to Christina Cragholm '97 by Februrary 21, 2000. We will meet in the Legion courtyard and enter the museum as a group, so please don't be late!
