Buddhist Art of Myanmar by Sylvia Fraser-Lu and Donald Martin Stadtner, 1st Ed
About the Item
Buddhist Art of Myanmar by Sylvia Fraser-Lu and Donald Martin Stadtner. Published by the New Haven Asia Society Museum, 2015 for an exhibition February 10-Mat 10, 2015. A showcase of exceptional and rare works of Buddhist art, presented to the international community for the first time. The practice of Buddhism in Myanmar (Burma) has resulted in the production of dazzling objects since the 5th century. This landmark exhibition presents the first overview of these great works of art from major museums in Myanmar and also collections in the United States, including: sculptures, paintings, textiles, and religious implements created for temples and monasteries, and for personal devotion. Many of these pieces have never before been seen outside of Myanmar. Accompanied by brilliant color photography, essays by Sylvia Fraser-Lu, Donald M. Stadtner, and scholars from around the world synthesize the history of Myanmar from the ancient through colonial periods and discuss the critical links between religion, geography, government, historiography, and artistic production. The authors examine the multiplicity of styles and techniques throughout the country, the ways Buddhist narratives have been conveyed through works of art, and the context in which the diverse objects were used. Certain to be the essential resource on the subject, Buddhist Art of Myanmar illuminates two millennia of rarely seen masterpieces.
