SAINT LOUIS ART MUSEUM 40TH GALA

ELEMENTS: THE ALCHEMIST'S GARDEN

Step inside ELEMENTS: The Alchemist’s Garden—a world where art, nature, and imagination intertwined to honor four decades of the Saint Louis Art Museum’s premier gala. Inspired by “Anselm Kiefer: Becoming the Sea”, this year’s celebration invited guests into an alchemical journey through the elemental forces of water, earth, fire, and air.
Surrounded by Kiefer’s poetic and mythic visual language, the evening became a multisensory immersion—an exploration of creation, transformation, and the expressive power of the natural world.
