A conversation with Assistant Curator Lakshika Senarath Gamage, Associate Curator Maggie Bell, and Head of Conservation and Installations John Griswold
"Gold: Enduring Power, Sacred Craft" is the Museum’s first major exhibition uniting a selection of objects from its extraordinary holdings in European and Asian art, explored through the presence of gold. Research for this project has shed new light on the technical histories and material compositions of the works on view, and their relationships to one another across time and place.
Join Lakshika Senarath Gamage, Assistant Curator, Maggie Bell, Associate Curator, and John Griswold, Head of Conservation and Installations, in conversation about these recent discoveries, which contribute to a broader understanding of the significance of gold in the spiritual, cultural and artistic practices represented in this exhibition.
DETAILS:
Tickets are available the day of the program on site starting at 4:00 p.m. Theater doors open at 4:30 p.m.
