O'Keeffe and beyond in New Britain

“Jimson Weed/White Flower No. 1 ‘‘ (oil on canvas, 1932) by Georgia O’Keeffe, in the show “The Beyond: Georgia O'Keeffe and Contemporary Art’’ at the New Britain (Conn.) Museum of American Art. This innovative exhibition features more than three dozen of O'Keeffe's most important works alongside 20 contemporary artists that evoke and elaborate upon the iconography of O'Keeffe's career. New Britain is an old factory town in the middle of the Nutmeg State with a surprisingly important museum that was started in the city’s salad days.
