Summary:
"The Rubin Museum of
Art
is honored to present '
Himalayan
Art
in 108
Objects
' to readers interested in
Himalayan
art
and cultures specifically, as well as those fascinated by the
art
and cultures of Asia more broadly. This accessible introduction traces the
art
and material culture of the Tibetan,
Himalayan
, and Inner Asian regions with a focus on cross-cultural exchange. The object-centered approach is loosely modeled after the British Museum's 'A History of the World in 100
Objects
' and features contributions from 72 international scholars, who explore 108 -- an auspicious number --
objects
and sites from the perspectives of a wide range of fields and disciplines. It provides multiple access points for a deeper understanding of the region and its
art
and cultures. (...)"--Foreword, p.14.
