SUMMARY:Wonders of Creation: Mapping the Cosmos through a Special Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, October 12\n10:00 a.m. PT\nSpeaker: Ladan Akbarnia\, Ph.D.\, Curator of South Asian and Islamic Art at The San Diego Museum of Art\nVirtual Event \n  \nThis illustrated talk will explore the story and vision behind The San Diego Museum of Art’s current special exhibition\, Wonders of Creation: Art\, Science\, and Innovation in the Islamic World\, on view through January 5\, 2025. Wonders of Creation explores intersections of art and science in Islamic intellectual and visual culture from the 8th century to the present\, using the lens of “wonder” as defined by an influential 13th-century Islamic cosmography describing the universe. Written in Arabic and Persian by Zakariyya ibn Muhammad al-Qazwini and entitled The Wonders of Creation and the Rarities of Existence\, this text catalogues the marvels of the universe in a single\, richly illustrated book. The exhibition features over 200 works presented through the framework of Qazwini’s text\, including manuscripts\, astrolabes\, magic bowls\, precious stones\, luster dishes\, architectural elements\, and contemporary art. Following the cosmography’s narrative through the celestial and terrestrial realms\, topics such as astronomy\, astrology\, natural history\, alchemy\, medicine\, and geometry are explored through objects from Spain\, North Africa\, and the Middle East to Central\, South\, and Southeast Asia and the modern diaspora. After an overview of the exhibition with images and details of selected works representing the narrative and conceptual structure\, this talk will consider the framework of the exhibition as a methodology for representing Islamic art and material culture on a wider scale. \nSpeaker Bio: Dr. Ladan Akbarnia is Curator of South Asian and Islamic Art at The San Diego Museum of Art (2019–present). A specialist in Islamic visual culture\, her research\, exhibitions\, and publications address cross-cultural transmissions in Iran\, Central Asia\, and South Asia; Sufism; Persianate drawings; contemporary art; and methodologies of museum display. Her current exhibition\, Wonders of Creation: Art\, Science\, and Innovation in the Islamic World\, is on view at SDMA through January 5\, 2025\, then traveling to the McMullen Museum of Art\, where the exhibition will be on view February 1 through June 1\, 2025. Since joining SDMA in 2019\, Akbarnia has organized several exhibitions and displays. Previously\, she was Assistant Keeper & Curator of Islamic Collections and lead curator for the Albukhary Foundation Gallery of the Islamic World at The British Museum (2010–19); Hagop Kevorkian Associate Curator of Islamic Art at the Brooklyn Museum (2007–10)\, where she organized a reinstallation of the Islamic collection and Light of the Sufis: The Mystical Arts of Islam (2009–10); and Executive Director of the Iran Heritage Foundation in London (2009–10). She received her Ph.D. from Harvard University. \n  \nPlease reserve your spot by clicking on this link.

SUMMARY:Virtual Tour: Frames of Reference: Depictions of the East
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday\, November 13th \n1:00 p.m. – 2:00 p.m. PT \nWhat we see depends on how close or far away we are from an object or scene\, as well as the light and our focus. It also depends on the prism through which we view the world beyond our own. In this virtual tour we will dissect how point of view influenced perceptions in the genre of art known as “Orientalism\,” which shared romanticized depictions of places and people “East” of a Eurocentric frame of reference. In this virtual tour\, we will explore how these artists presented images\, realistic and imagined\, of the Islamic world. \n  \nPlease reserve your spot by clicking on this link. All participants will be sent the Zoom link and instructions via email once you secure your place. Space is limited. \nReserve my spot! \n\nHosted by The San Diego Museum of Art Docent Council. \nFeatured: Edwin Lord Weeks\, Market Scene at Mogador\, 1881. Oil on canvas. The San Diego Museum of Art\, Gift of Mr. John G. Pickard\, 1983.35.

SUMMARY:The Kashmir Shawl's Sikh Period
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, November 16\n10:00 a.m. PT\nSpeaker: Frank Ames\, independent art dealer\, curator\, scholar\, and author\nVirtual Event \nJoin the South Asian Arts Council online as textile expert Frank Ames shares insights on the history of Kashmir shawls. During the period that Maharaja Ranjit Singh\, the ruler of Punjab\, took control of Kashmir in 1819\, the patterns of Kashmir shawls underwent a significant transformation\, shifting from traditional repeated floral designs to those featuring architectonic\, geometric\, and indigenous cultural motifs influenced by Punjab’s Sikh culture. Some historians attribute this radical change to French influence\, as France was a leader in replicating these imported Indian shawls. This presentation\, drawn from Ames’s forthcoming book\, will explore the events that occurred in France during this time\, demonstrating that the country was preoccupied with replicating the latest Indian fashion to meet an overwhelming domestic demand\, rather than producing shawls for export to the Asia Pacific\, which never happened. Rather than viewing this as a loss to India’s Punjabi Sikh culture\, the Sikh-era Kashmir shawl should be recognized by historians as a pinnacle of artistic achievement in Indian art\, reflecting the creative spirit of the Khalsa movement. \nSpeaker Bio: Frank Ames is a textile expert with over 45 years of experience as an independent dealer\, curator\, scholar\, and writer specializing in antique textiles with a particular emphasis on Indian/European Kashmir shawls. As a Parisian resident for many years\, he refined his expertise by organizing specialized auctions at Drouot. Ames is renowned for his two seminal books on the subject of shawls: The Kashmir Shawl and its Indo-French Influence (1997) and Woven Masterpieces of Sikh Heritage (2010)\, which have brought him often in close liaison with private collectors\, museums\, and institutions worldwide. He has authored articles for publications such as HALI\, Textiles Asia\, Orientations Magazine\, and Sikh Formations\, and curated the esteemed The Arts of Kashmir exhibition at the Asia Society in 2008. Based on the Upper West Side\, New York—when not at his winter home in Goa\, India\, Ames is currently working on his third book\, scheduled to be released this fall. \n  \nPlease reserve your spot by clicking on this link. All participants will be sent the Zoom link and instructions via email once you secure your place.\n \nSave my spot! \n  \nSponsored by the South Asian Arts Council. \n  \nFeatured: Image courtesy of Frank Ames. © Frank Ames.
