The Portland Museum of Art features "Georgia O’Keeffe and the Camera: The Art of Identity", an exhibition which includes 60 photographs of Georgia O’Keeffe and 18 works by the artist. The exhibit addresses the relationship between O'Keeffe's art and photographs made of her over the course of a long career. It is the first exhibition that pairs paintings and photographs to establish two opposing public images of the artist.

Georgia O’Keeffe and the Camera includes works by famous photographers such as Ansel Adams, Alfred Stieglitz, Eliot Porter, Todd Webb, and Arnold Newman. In addition, there are paintings as well as works on paper that mark major moments in the development of O'Keeffe's art including the early abstract drawings, the first landscapes in New Mexico from the 1930s, and the late architectural studies of her homes at the Ghost Ranch and Abiquiu.
