An Evening with Jeffrey Gibson

Join artist Jeffrey Gibson and Aaron I. Fleischman Curator Jane Panetta for a conversation about The Genesis Facade Commission: Jeffrey Gibson, The Animal That Therefore I Am, a suite of four figurative sculptures for The Met Fifth Avenue’s facade. These new works for the niches draw upon Gibson’s longstanding and highly developed iconography and sculpture practice, one built upon a dynamic visual language that fuses Indigenous and Native identity and imagery with abstraction, patterning, materiality, and text. The conversation also delves into Gibson’s expansive career as an interdisciplinary artist.
