About this event

German Events NYC presents an illustrated evening about Berlin’s Pergamonmuseum with Dr. Pınar Durgun, formerly a curator at the Vorderasiatisches Museum and now Associate Curator of Ancient Western Asian Seals and Tablets at The Morgan Library & Museum. Through images and stories, the talk explores the monumental collections, how ancient objects came to Berlin, and the challenge of renovating a building around installations that cannot simply be moved.

Doors open at 6:30 pm; the talk begins at 6:55 pm, with drinks, Q&A and socialising afterwards. Eventbrite lists the full evening until 10:30 pm. Regular tickets are $29. No specialist knowledge is needed.

This is an independently organised event and is not an official event of, sponsored by or affiliated with the Pergamonmuseum, Vorderasiatisches Museum, Staatliche Museen zu Berlin or Stiftung Preußischer Kulturbesitz.
