Hello/ Tashi Delek!
This Saturday, Sept. 30th Tibetan artists from around
the globe - Tibet, India, Switzerland, Australia, UK
and USA - will converge in Boulder, Colorado for the
first-ever major museum exhibition of contemporary
Tibetan art, "Waves on the Turquoise Lake:
Contemporary Expressions of Tibetan Art," hosted by
the University of Colorado's up-and-coming art museum,
the CU Art Museum, and Boulder-based Mechak Center for
Contemporary Tibetan Art.
There will be an all-day symposium on Saturday, Sept.
30th where artists will present their work as well as
engage in panel discussions with some of the leading
scholars in Tibetan art history, anthropology, and
history, including Tsering W. Shakya. The CU Art
Museum will open one hour early on Saturday at 9am,
and the symposium will run from 10am-4:30pm in the
N141 Auditorium. Both are located in the Sibell Wolle
Fine Arts Building on the CU-Boulder campus.
The event is free and open to the public. A reception
with artists and scholars will follow the program.
More info: www.colorado.edu/cuartmuseum; 303-492-8300.
Both this exhibition and its related symposium are
timely, culturally-significant events for the growing
art scene in the Colorado Front Range, as well as
Boulder's deep connection to Tibet and its culture (we
are a Lhasa sister-city!) - not to mention this is the
first time these artists are meeting as
representatives of the growing contemporary Tibetan
art movement - in Boulder, Colorado, nonetheless.
Thanks for your interest.
Best-
Tamar Victoria Scoggin
Co-curator of "Waves on the Turquoise Lake"
