More than Mr. 5%: the early life of Calouste Gulbenkian
Calouste Gulbenkian (1869-1955) is famously known as "Mr. Five Percent," an influential figure in the formation of the international oil industry. But Gulbenkian didn't earn this reputation until his fifties, and the first half of his life is shrouded in mystery. Using previously unseen archival material, this exhibition explores the written cultures and experiences which shaped this Ottoman Armenian in the years up to 1914.
