Sigourney Weaver hosted the Nomad's Way Gala, showcasing
rare pieces of antique Kazakh jewelry and modern
photographs. The project, which aims to introduce the
heritage and cultural identity of Kazakhstan, united
Christie's and celebrity event planner Colin Cowie in a
week-long Christie's exhibition.
The gala took place at the New York Public Library and
featured a special performance by Robin Thicke and a
live auction of 10 unique pieces. One-of-a-kind works of
art were created specifically for the event by the
world's most renowned jewelry houses, including
Chopard, Chatila, de Grisogono, Avakian,
and Jacob & Co. Each piece was inspired by the
nomadic tradition and ancient craftsmanship of
Kazakhstan.
Proceeds from the gala's auction benefited the
Saby Charitable Foundation's Alem Young Talents
Support Program, which helps children and young
adults around the world realize their potential.
