The second program in our At Home with ASHK: Museum Webinar Series bring you Dr. Gauri Parimoo Krishnan, a Singapore-based art historian, independent curator, and museum consultant who has contributed greatly to her city’s vibrant art and heritage sector over the decades. Drawing on her rich curatorial practice, Gauri will discuss the post-modern curating of diversity and plurality; with emphasis on South Asian art history, community history, and living culture and how they illuminate Indian representation in multi-cultural Singapore. Gauri will also discuss how collections, modern replicas, and digital interpretations puts heritage in context for future generations. Joining the conversation will be Prof. Kathleen L Wyma from the Department of Fine Arts at the University of Hong Kong.

At Home with ASHK: Museum Webinar Series bring international museums into the heart of your home through conversations with some of the best and brightest museum and curatorial names across the globe. Hear about the ways in which they have persevered and adapted to remain sustainable, learn the long-term implications those changes will have on their future collections and exhibitions, and take a sneak-peak behind the scenes at some exceptional shows that have been closed to the public eye.
