Through May 14

Enter a world of fantasy featuring over 40 works of couture art, personally selected for exhibition by none other than the world-renowned designer herself, this exhibition marks an exhibition milestone for Guo Pei. Each gown presented not only underscores her unique ability to tap into China’s rich cultural heritage, but also an array of cultural influences from international arts, architecture, and mythology. Reviewing the canon of her creative genius, she has selected a carefully curated presentation of her finest and most personal
pieces. In doing so, it represents a creative journey that charts her rise as China’s ‘Queen of Couture.’ The exhibition is further enriched by the inclusion of a number of influential pieces from her highly successful and much-lauded couture bridal wear, which makes its North American debut at the Bowers.

Gee’s Bend: Shared Legacy

See an installation of prints made by members of Gee’s Bend Quiltmakers’ Collective. The pieces were created by pressing original quilted fabric designs face down on a wax-coated printing plate that captured the fabrics’ texture, seams, and stitching of the original. Through this innovative process, a quilt is translated to a printed surface—a new medium to explore and share the quiltmakers’ creativity. “Gee’s Bend: Shared Legacy” is presented in two six-month installments, each featuring a selection of 12 prints.
