The Alfred Stieglitz Collection first will be shown at Crystal Bridges in a temporary exhibition, "The Artist's Eye: Georgia O'Keeffe and the Alfred Stieglitz Collection." The collection features work from some of photographer and gallery owner Stieglitz's favorite artists, including O'Keeffe, Marsden Hartley and John Marin, alongside some of the early European modernists who inspired them: from Paul Cezanne to Pierre-Auguste Renoir and Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec. Admission to Crystal Bridges is free, but tickets to "The Artist's Eye" cost $5 for adults. The exhibition opens to the public Saturday. It will be on display through Feb. 3. After that, Crystal Bridges will set aside some of works in the collection that involve delicate, light-sensitive materials, Stewart said. "Some of those works will go to rest, particularly those that are paper or fabric or wood," Stewart said. "Those will go to rest in the vault, which would leave ... maybe slightly less than half of the exhibition to continue to be shown." Then, like a child at the center of a complicated divorce, the collection will go back to Tennessee in 2015. ___ Online: "The Artists' Eye" at Crystal Bridges:
