Native America Calling - Friday, November 14, 2025 – A Pueblo answer to the work and renown of artist Georgia O’Keeffe

Georgia O’Keeffe’s paintings of the northern New Mexico landscape are among the most recognizable and beloved works of art in history. So much so that the distinctive mesas, bluffs, and plateaus are sometimes referred to as O’Keeffe Country. But the land has always been home to Pueblo people that have deep cultural ties to those same iconic landscapes. A new exhibition at the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum in Santa Fe turns to a handful of Tewa Pueblo artists to offer their interpretations of the landscape and O’Keeffe’s inescapable connection to it. We’ll hear from the curators and artists behind the Tewa Nangeh/Tewa Country exhibition.

GUESTS

Jason Garcia Okuu Pín (Kha’p’o Owingeh, Santa Clara Pueblo), co-curator and artist in the Tewa Nangeh/Tewa Country exhibit at the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum

Michael Namingha (Ohkay Owingeh and Hopi), conceptual multimedia artist

Charine Pilar Gonzales (San Ildefonso Pueblo), writer, director, and filmmaker

Bess Murphy, Luce curator of art and social practice at the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum
