Three classic paintings from the Smithsonian American Art Museum’s collection — including a Georgia O’Keeffe skyline of New York and a Thomas Moran landscape of Utah’s Kanab Canyon — will be displayed starting this fall at the Utah Museum of Fine Arts.
The display is one facet of a collaboration between the Washington, D.C.-based Smithsonian and five Western museums, backed by a $2 million grant from two foundations, Art Bridges and the Terra Foundation for American Art, the Smithsonian announced Monday.
Starting Oct. 25 and running through Oct. 4, 2020, three paintings from SAAM’s renowned collection of American art will be shown at UMFA.
