From Kiln to Kimchi: A Celebration of Korean Culture
Advertisement
Join us for a celebration of local Korean and Korean American culture in New York City. From the role of pottery in everyday life to its deep connection with Korean cuisine, we’ll explore how craft and culture intersect in meaningful ways.
This special event is inspired by the Museum’s Louis V. Gerstner, Jr. Collections Core, which showcases more than 3,000 specimens and objects–including a display of Korean pottery on the second floor–in the Gilder Center.
You’ll have the opportunity to:
- Wander through the Gilder Center to try four different iconic Korean dishes produced by local vendors and restaurants.
- Engage with Museum scientists and staff as they present rarely seen Korean pottery pieces from the collection, offering insight into their cultural and historical significance.
- Explore contemporary works by Korean American artists Janny Baek and Jane Yang-D'haene, and learn how they have been inspired by traditional Korean pottery. Watch Korean American pottery artist Dave Kim work, and ask questions about his artistic process.
