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.

SUMMARY:The Art & Romance of the Rebozo
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, June 15\n6:00 p.m.\nMuseum Boardroom  \n\n\nGregorio Luke will speak on Mexico’s iconic textile – the rebozo – a powerful symbol of Mexican culture and identity. Its surprising Arabic origin and history will surprise and delight you. \n\nThe Mexican Revolution of 1910 brought the rebozo global notoriety as the garment of choice for the “Adelitas\,” rebel women who used it to carry both babies and weapons wrapped inside past government checkpoints. \nWomen of all socioeconomic classes have worn this garment celebrating births\, weddings and even as a death shroud. Famous artists and First Ladies of Mexico favored them such as Frida Kahlo\, Maria Felix\, and even the Empress Carlota. The rebozo became a sign of modesty and ostentation and a symbol in Mexican literature and cinema. \nPlease join us for a lecture detailing the fascinating history\, many uses\, and evolution of this culturally significant garment. \nWear your favorite rebozo! Join us after the lecture for light refreshments. \n\nGregorio Luke is an expert on Mexican art and culture.  He is the Former Director of the Museum of Latin American Art\, Consul for Cultural Affairs of the Consulate of Mexico in Los Angeles\, First Secretary of the Embassy of Mexico and Deputy Director of the Mexican Cultural Institute in Washington\, D.C.  Luke has intensively lectured on Mexican culture in prestigious institutions\, museums and universities in the United States\, Mexico\, and Europe. \n  \n\nThis event is sponsored by the Latin American Arts Council \n$5 LAAC members and students | $10 SDMA members | $15 nonmembers

Check here for details.\n\n\nDr. Ana Paulina Gámez  will speak on Mexico’s iconic textile – the rebozo – a powerful symbol of Mexican culture and identity. Its surprising Arabic origin and history will surprise and delight you. \nThe Mexican Revolution of 1910 brought the rebozo global notoriety as the garment of choice for the “Adelitas\,” rebel women who used it to carry both babies and weapons wrapped inside past government checkpoints. \nWomen of all socioeconomic classes have worn this garment celebrating births\, weddings and even as a death shroud. Famous artists and First Ladies of Mexico favored them such as Frida Kahlo\, Maria Felix\, and even the Empress Carlota. The rebozo became a sign of modesty and ostentation and a symbol in Mexican literature and cinema. \nPlease join us for a lecture detailing the fascinating history\, many uses\, and evolution of this culturally significant garment. \nWear your favorite rebozo! Join us after the lecture for light refreshments. \n\nDr. Ana Paulina Gámez received her Ph.D. in Art History from the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM)\, where she also currently teaches art. On two occasions\, she has been a scholarship recipient by the Ministry of Education and Culture of Spain to teach the course “Sources of Viceregal Art”. \nAs a specialist in Decorative Arts\, Popular Arts\, and Design\, Dr. Gámez has curated and consulted for multiple exhibitions in Mexico and the United States. She has presented various art courses and conferences\, and has published several books\, articles and essays in the United States\, Spain\, and Mexico.  She has been a curator for the Franz Meyer Museum and also resident curator for the National Museum of Art in Mexico City\, where she was in charge of the Viceregal and Popular Art collections. \nCurrently\, Dr. Gámez is an advisor to the Banamex Cultural Foundation\, as well as to the National Foundation for the Promotion of Handicrafts.  She is an active member of the Academic Councils of the Textile Center of the Mayan World and the Arocena Museum. \n\nThis event is sponsored by the Latin American Arts Council \n$5 LAAC members and students | $10 SDMA members | $15 nonmembers

SUMMARY:Exploring Sikh Legacy and the Impact of the India-Pakistan Partition
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, April 14\n2:00–5:00 p.m.\nMuseum Boardroom \nDuring the 15th century\, Sikh philosophy emerged as a reformist movement in India\, predominantly in the lands that became Pakistan in the partition of 1947. By the 19th century\, the Sikh kingdom established a strong secular formidable rule that the expanding British East India Company\, was stalled from further westward advances. In 1947\, with Indian independence…the British divided the country between India and Pakistan on religious demographics. \nAmardeep Singh is a child of the partition – his parents were uprooted from their homes that became Pakistan. Amardeep’s pioneering research serves as a link for posterity to an almost forgotten yet rich cultural legacy. \nAmardeep Singh\, author & photographer\, lives in Singapore. With an undergraduate degree in Engineering\, he pursued a Masters in Business Administration at the University of Chicago and was the Asia Pacific Regional Head for Revenue Management at American Express. He has passionately maintained pursuits in literary and creative arts as another facet of his personality. During his extensive travels through Pakistan\, Amardeep started documenting his explorations in a book\, Lost Heritage: The Sikh Legacy in Pakistan followed by a sequel in 2017 titled The Quest Continues: Lost Heritage: The Sikh Legacy in Pakistan. His two books are rich in photographs and story line. Autographed books will be available for purchase at $100/book. \n\nFree for CAIS members | $8 for SDMA members | $5 for Students | $10 for all others \nCAIS Members: for your complimentary ticket\, please contact 619-232-7931 by 2 p.m. on 4/13\, otherwise you will need to register at the door pending availability \nFor more information contact caissdma@gmail.com or call (619) 788-8577 or (858) 336-0404\nThis event is limited to 60 people\, so please register online ASAP to reserve your place \nThe presentation will be in two parts with a Q&A and discussion. \nSponsored by CAIS (Committee for the Arts of the Indian Subcontinent) \nFeatured: Image of Amardeep Singh from sangrurheritagelit.com/book-release-function/

SUMMARY:The Cosmic Dance of Hindu and Buddhist Deities
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, January 20\n3:00 p.m. Registration and Reception with Speaker\n3:30 p.m. Lecture \nMore often than the sacred beings of other cultures\, the gods of Hinduism and Buddhism dance. They express their creative and destructive energies through fluid rhythmic movements\, setting the pulse of the universe. In benign moods they dance gracefully in divine play. In stern moods they dance with a force that\, if fully unleashed\, could destroy worlds. Sculpture and paintings depicting deities including Shiva\, Krishna\, and the elephant-headed Ganesha\, together with video clips of dance performances\, will illuminate these ideas. \nThis lecture will be given by Forrest McGill. McGill is the Wattis Senior Curator of South and Southeast Asian Art at the Asian Art Museum of San Francisco. He has worked for forty years as a museum administrator and a teacher\, curator\, researcher\, and writer in Asian art. Major exhibitions of which he has been organizer or co-organizer include The Rama Epic: Hero\, Heroine\, Ally\, Foe (2016); Gorgeous (2014)\, a joint project with SFMOMA; Emerald Cities: Arts of Siam and Burma\, 1775-1950 (2009)\, A Curious Affair: The Fascination between East and West (2006)\, and The Kingdom of Siam: The Arts of Central Thailand\, 1350-1800 (2005).

SUMMARY:Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva and Chinese Poets in Medieval Japan
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, October 26\n1:00 p.m. \nThe transmission of Zen Buddhism from China introduced early medieval Japanese painters to an array of new figural subjects\, some religious in nature and others ostensibly less so. Alongside sinicized devotional imagery came pictures of a host of figures from Chinese antiquity—praiseworthy monks\, notable eccentrics\, and celebrated literary heroes. Dr. Aaron Rio will examine the concurrent reception of these images in medieval Japan through an exploration of the dynamic interaction between pictures of Avalokiteshvara\, the bodhisattva of compassion\, and ancient Chinese poets. Dr. Rio is the Andrew W. Mellon Assistant Curator of Japanese and Korean Art at the Minneapolis Institute of Art. \nFree for AAC members / $10 Museum members / $12 nonmembers / $8 students \nSponsored by the Asian Arts Council
