Get a sneak peek at Solid Gold. Both Member Preview days feature special activations, including a photo booth, art-making (Thursday, 12–3 pm; Friday 12–3 and 5–8 pm), thematic cocktails at a cash bar (Friday, 6–10 pm), and other fun surprises!

Featuring more than 400 works, this shimmering exhibition pairs showpieces from the collection with stunning international loans. The fashion world’s embrace of gold will be seen in standout designs by Anna Sui, Christian Dior, Demna, Gianfranco Ferré, Giorgio di Sant’Angelo, Halston, Mary McFadden, The Blonds, Walter Van Beirendonck, and Yves Saint Laurent. Gold-ground paintings and sculptures, coins, and other treasures will sparkle alongside jewelry by Alexander Calder, Belperron, Bulgari, Cartier, Charles Loloma, Jacob & Co, and Verdura—as well as grillz by Gabby Elan. While celebrating the seductive magic of this luminous material, the exhibition will also confront darker histories, inviting frank discussions about the human and environmental costs of extracting gold ore from the earth.
