SUMMARY:The Indianization of Southeast Asia
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, August 31\n10:30 a.m.–12:30 p.m.\nMuseum Boardroom \nIndia has gifted the countries of Southeast Asia with many treasures. These gifts include religions – Hinduism and Buddhism\, languages –  Sanskrit and Pali\, their arts and literature\, philosophy and legal system. A lasting evidence of these influences can be seen in the extant religious architecture and sculpture  of Southeast Asia. Using the Indian prototype\, local builders blended it with their own indigenous icon and produced a new art resembling that of India but differing slightly in each country. \nHelen Anderson will survey the existing sculpture and architecture of Vietnam\, Cambodia\, Thailand and Burma\, linking it to the Indian prototype. She will also discuss the manner by which these Indian ideas were transmitted. Anderson has lived in Asia for many years\, where she immersed herself in the art and culture of China\, Singapore\, Thailand\, India and Iran. Having studied Chinese ceramics and Buddhist art and architecture\, she has presented at The National Palace Museum in Taipei\, The National Museum of Bangkok\, the Phoenix Art Museum\, as well as The San Diego Museum of Art. \nSponsored by the South Asian Art Council (SAAC)

SUMMARY:The Fabled Silk Road: Travelers and Treasures
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, September 27\n1:00 p.m.\nMuseum Boardroom \nThe fabled Silk Road held vast treasures lying buried under the loess soil of the deserts  of China and central Eurasia until intrepid travelers from many lands\, risking unheard of dangers\, uncovered wonders.  During the late 19th and early 20th centuries\, numerous international expeditions of archaeologists\, art historians and adventurers found hidden cities\, temples and caves holding manuscripts\, sculptures\, utensils of everyday life and wall paintings which told\, to the delight of historians\, of life in a time hundreds of years earlier.  The competition between these groups which included British\, Germans\, French\, Japanese and Russians was fierce. Today museums around the world hold the treasures they discovered. \nHelen Anderson\, independent scholar\, intrepid traveler and former chairman of The San Diego Museum of Art’s Asian Arts Council will take us along the paths traveled by these men\, outlining the treasures they found. \nHelen Anderson was born in Virginia and educated there at Longwood College.
