The American Southwest is the focus of this exhibition featuring art from the Raymond James Financial Collection, the Museum of Fine Arts, and other area collections. Georgia O’Keeffe, John Sloan and others sought out storied New Mexico—O’Keeffe made New Mexico her home. Native sons and daughters such as Maria Martinez, Diego Romero, Tony Alberta, and Dan Namingha gave voice to deep-rooted traditions through color, form, and subject. A special feature of the exhibition will be the breathtaking jewelry of contemporary masters, inspired by traditional forms.
