Hello Museum L-Group:

I am writing to you from Curatorial Assistance Traveling Exhibitions in
Pasadena, CA.

We have an exhibition called "Mongolian Art: A Living Landscape" that is
available for venues to book during the dates of 2004-2005.

"Mongolian Art: A Living Landscape" uses objects, words, and images to tell
the history of the Mongolian steppeland from ancient times to the present.
   =20
Mongolia=B9s distinctive landscape has deeply influenced its history and its
people. Ancient tools, spiritual icons, decorative and personal objects
reveal a civilization shaped by the unique and rugged terrain.  The
importance of the landscape within the culture is the organizing theme for
the exhibition, which falls into seven main areas:
Past and Future Landscapes (stone tools and monuments);
Five Snouts on the Steppe (the sheep, goat, yak, camel, and horse as the
staples of daily life);
Before the Mongols (early people on the Eurasian steppe);
Old Gods (tsam ceremonial masks);
Socio-cultural Heritage (Buddhism);
The Written Word (scripts); and
Home (art as an integral part of daily life).
The exhibition=B9s design sets the objects in front of photographic murals an=
d
large paintings, including an eight-foot painting of the entire pantheon of
Mongolian religious iconography. Together, these sections compose a
narrative of Mongolian life and celebrate the extraordinary vitality and
tenacity of the Mongolian people.

If anyone is interested in receiving the complementary 25 page, full-color
descriptive booklet with an exhibition checklist, please let me know. You
