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" Tamar Scoggin, M.A., M.S.
