BENTONVILLE, Arkansas – After years of legal wrangling, a renowned art collection including pieces by the famous painter Georgia O'Keeffe and her late husband, Alfred Stieglitz, will make its debut at a museum in northwest Arkansas.
O'Keeffe gave the collection to Fisk University in Tennessee in 1949.
Last year, a Tennessee judge approved a deal for Fisk to sell a 50 percent stake in the collection to the Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art created by Wal-Mart heiress Alice Walton. The school received $30 million as part of the deal.
Tennessee's attorney general had argued that selling any part of the 101-piece collection would violate O'Keeffe's wishes.
An exhibition featuring the collection opens to the public on Saturday in Bentonville, Arkansas. It will be on display through Feb. 3.
Fun stories about food, relationships, the great outdoors and more.
