About this Event

Join Petra Slinkard, Chief Curator and The Nancy B. Putnam Curator of Fashion and Textiles, for an in-depth talk about Andrew Gn: Fashioning the World. Learn how Gn’s works display a convergence of Asian and Western influences and feature reinterpretations of Asian cultural elements, including Chinese, Indian, Malay, Indonesian influences and his Peranakan heritage. Explore how Gn’s — and Singapore’s — story echoes Salem’s history as a cross-cultural port city.
