Though she is perhaps best recognized for her vast and vibrant flower paintings, the contributions of American artist Georgia O’Keeffe extend well beyond these works.

This hour, join us as we tour The Beyond: Georgia O'Keeffe and Contemporary Art, a special exhibition at the New Britain Museum of American Art in New Britain, Connecticut.

We meet up with the museum’s director and CEO, Min Jung Kim, to better understand O’Keeffe’s life and legacy. We also talk with contemporary artist Wardell Milan whose works are featured alongside O’Keeffe’s as part of the exhibition. 

Join the conversation on Facebook and Twitter.
