SUMMARY:Painting\, Map\, Icon: Visualizing A Nepalese Sacred Journey
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, May 13\n10:00 a.m.–noon PT\nSpeaker: Dr. Neeraja Poddar\, The Ira Brind and Stacey Spector Associate Curator of South Asian Art at Philadelphia Museum of Art\, and a Research Fellow of the Oxford Centre for Hindu Studies\nVirtual Event \n  \n\n  \nIn the collection of Philadelphia Museum of Art is an exceptional Nepalese painting that depicts pilgrims walking winding paths\, fording fast-flowing rivers\, and climbing steep cliffs as they make their way through the Kathmandu Valley. Their destination—the holy lake of Gosainkund—is at the right end of the painting and pilgrims traverse the work’s fourteen feet\, three and a half inches (4.35 metres) to reach it. On the road they encounter numerous sacred sites that dot the urban centers or stand alone in the landscape. This presentation will explore how the format of the Gosainkund painting lends itself to the creation of a sacred map that unfolds experientially. Rather than focusing on scientific precision\, the artist appears to use the horizontality of the object to plot towns\, rivers\, and mountains in relation to each other as they might be encountered on a journey\, helping locate sacred sites and allows them to use the painting to trace a unique pilgrimage\, choosing the places they want to “visit” en route. By walking along the length of the work and following an individualized route with their eyes. While the viewers are unable to bathe in the purifying waters of the holy lake\, they may accrue religious merit by offering worship at Gosainkund—the remnants of ritual substances sprinkled on the deity represented within the holy lake are still visible\, transforming the painting into an icon and making it a potent stand-in for a physical pilgrimage. \nNeeraja Poddar is The Ira Brind and Stacey Spector Associate Curator of South Asian Art at Philadelphia Museum of Art\, and a Research Fellow of the Oxford Centre for Hindu Studies. She received her Ph.D. in art history and Archaeology from Columbia University\, and was previously curator at The City Palace Museum\, Udaipur. Her area of expertise is illustrated manuscripts and books produced at the royal courts of South Asia from circa 1500-1800. She also studies the painting traditions of Nepal. Dr. Poddar has published on illustrated manuscripts and series of the Bhāgavata Purāṇa; her curatorial projects include Mewar Photographs\, 1857-1947 at The City Palace Museum\, Udaipur\, and Encounters in Exile: From the Ramayana\, The Art of the Book in South Asia\, and the reinstallation of the South Asian galleries at Philadelphia Museum of Art\, among others. Her most recent installation\, Unbound: Islamic Arts of the Book\, at Philadelphia Museum of Art\, will remain on view until August 2023. \n  \nPlease reserve your spot by clicking on this link.

SUMMARY:Legacy of Ceylon: Art & Photography of Sri Lanka
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 25\n1:00–3:00 p.m. PT\nSpeaker: Dr. Janet Baker\, Curator of Asian Art\, Phoenix Art Museum\nVirtual Event \n  \nDiscover the island nation of Sri Lanka\, formerly known as Ceylon\, which lies off the southeast coat of India\, placing it along strategic sea routes of trade between Asia and Europe. Explore the legacy of Ceylon based on surviving artifacts\, Buddhism found a home in Sri Lanka from its place of origin in northwest India around the 5-6th century\, and the faith’s oldest traditions remain intact on the island today. Over the centuries\, various ruling families created a theocracy\, a government of officials who ruled by divine guidance. Beginning in the late 16th century\, the island entered a long period of colonial rule; first colonized by the Portuguese in 1597\, followed by the Dutch in 1640 and the British in 1815. The British largely supported the Buddhist theocracy maintained under the indigenous kings of Kandy\, the last monarchy to rule Ceylon from 1597 to 1815. Ceylon finally achieved independence in 1948\, and a period of insurrection and civil war followed. In 1972\, a constitution and a republic were established\, which led to the naming of a new nation\, Sri Lanka.\n  \nLegacy of Ceylon: Art & Photography of Sri Lanka presents a wide range of works that explore painting and sculpture featuring a distinctive combination of Indian and Southeast Asian artistic styles and iconography. Works from the colonial period are embellished with motifs from Portugal\, Holland\, and Britain. By the 18th century\, the concept of divine kingship had reached its apex. Solid bronze-casting techniques were used to create large-scale works that expressed the elegance and perfection in sculpted form of the enlightened spirit of the Buddha. Many of the works discussed had never been on public view prior to the exhibition of this same title at Phoenix Art Museum in 2021-22. Legacy of Ceylon: Art and Photography of Sri Lanka also features original black-and-white photographs by Dr. Quintus Fernando (1926-2004)\, who explored his native home of Sri Lanka in the 1950s with a Mamiya-flex camera and black-and-white film. His keen eye captured serene and exuberant moments of the island’s people\, landscapes\, Buddhist ruins\, and everyday life\, with a particular focus on the nation’s tropical sea and fertile fields. The timeless quality of these images reflect a historic moment between the end of colonial rule and the beginning of a new nation.\n  \nPlease note\, this session will be conducted virtually via Zoom. \nSave your spot by clicking on this link.

SUMMARY:Virtual Tour: O'Keeffe and Moore
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday\, May  31st \n1:00 p.m. – 2:00 p.m. PT \n  \nGeorgia O’Keeffe and Henry Moore were uncannily similar in their pursuit of natural forms: bones and stones\, shells; the unity of the female body with nature. They independently sought and were inspired by the organic roots of modern abstraction\, half a world away from each other. This tour will explore these artists’ works and the connection between the themes in which they were engaged\, comparing their working methods\, exploration of found objects\, and the juxtaposition of unlikely forms. \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: Georgia O’Keeffe\, Ram’s Head\, Blue Morning Glory\, 1938. Oil on canvas.
