Chef and restaurateur Nancy Silverton joins LACMA CEO Michael Govan for an edition of The Genesis Talks exploring craft, community, and culinary innovation.
As acclaimed chef, cookbook author, and restaurateur Nancy Silverton reflects on a career built at the intersection of craft and creativity, she joins LACMA CEO Michael Govan for a conversation about how cuisine serves as both identity and storytelling—rooted in history, driven by imagination. What does it mean to curate a meal like an exhibition? How does food become a form of authorship, as much a creative practice as painting or writing? Join us as we consider how chefs and artists alike transform raw materials into moments of connection.
This edition of The Genesis Talks is also part of Third Weekends at LACMA, our monthly line-up of free and ticketed programs.
