Rubin Museum of Art:

The transitional states between death and either the attainment of spiritual enlightenment or the return to the cycle of rebirth are explored in Bardo: The Tibetan Art of the Afterlife. For centuries, Tantric Buddhism has used tools that aid in the preparation for hallucinatory visions that appear in the afterlife. Only by recognizing these visions as illusory can buddhahood be attained.

We are pleased to announce that once again, Pure Vision Arts will be collaborating with the Fountain Gallery and the Survivors Art Foundation in The 5th Annual Outsider Art in the Hamptons. The exhibition will be held at Galerie BelAge in Westhampton Beach, New York from June 1 - September 6, 2010. There will be opening parties June 19th and July 24th from 5-8 pm.

We invite you to visit www.galeriebelage.com to learn more about the show and Galerie BelAge.  For questions regarding Pure Vision Arts participation, please call 212-366-4263, Ext 4222.  Many thanks.

Tradition Transformed: Tibetan Artists Respond marks the first exhibition of contemporary Tibetan art in a New York City museum. The nine Tibetan artists featured each explore contemporary issues--personal, political, and cultural--by integrating the centuries-old traditional imagery, techniques, and materials found in Tibetan Buddhist art with modern influences and media.

This new keystone exhibition equips visitors with a working knowledge of the principal concepts of Himalayan art, including important deities and symbols,  materials and techniques used in creating works of art, and the purposes and functions of these works in context. In October, a reproduction of a Tibetan shrine room will offer visitors a chance to experience Himalayan art in its cultural context.

The Rubin Museum presents the first exhibition of late 19th and early 20th century photographs by John Claude White, a British government officer who was stationed throughout the Himalayas during the British Raj. White traveled extensively during his twenty-year residence in Sikkim, documenting his official and personal journeys with an enormous camera. The resulting collection of large format prints beautifully represents the mountains he loved and the people whom White considered companions and friends.

For centuries Tibetan artists looked to India for artistic direction. But with the destruction of India's key monasteries in 1203, many artists turned to Nepal's Kathmandu Valley, home to the skilled Newar artists. The Newars' painting style, known as the Beri, was quickly adopted in Tibet, becoming one of the country's most influential artistic styles for four centuries. This exhibition traces the style's development, patronage, and distinctive features.
