A Stieglitz / O’Keeffe Celebration

Wednesday, June 8, 2011 at 4:00 pm

Please join us for a reception at the Beinecke to celebrate several exciting Library-sponsored projects drawing on materials in the Alfred Stieglitz/Georgia O’Keeffe Archive, including the publication of My Faraway One: Selected Letters of Georgia O’Keeffe and Alfred Stieglitz: Volume One, 1915–1933, edited by Sarah Greenough and jointly published by the Beinecke Library and the Yale University Press with the support of a generous gift from William Reese, Y’77. The event also celebrates the Library’s large-scale Stieglitz/O’Keeffe Archive digitization projects, which make images of the letters between Stieglitz and O’Keeffe freely and readily available online through various direct resources.
