Grain of Emptiness: Buddhist Inspired Contemporary Art

Rubin Museum of Art
150 West 17th Street,
New York, New York, USA
Nov 05, 2010 To Apr 11, 2011


Detail: Grain of Emptiness features five contemporary artists -Sanford Biggers, Theaster Gates, Atta Kim, Wolfgang Laib, and Charmion von Wiegand- all inspired by the Buddhist notions of emptiness and impermanence and Buddhist ritual practice. These artists are from disparate backgrounds and explore a range of artistic mediums, but all have inherited the practice of incorporating Eastern religious beliefs into their works. The exhibition's paintings, photographs, videos, and installations will be complemented by performance art.
