TIBETAN VISIONS
Contemporary Painting from Tibet

Rome, Italy, Feb-Mar 2009

 
 

If, thinking about Tibetan painting, images of monks uttering mantras while painting compassionate-looking Buddhas spontaneously arise, this event will dissipate not a few misconceptions about Tibetan people and Tibet in general.

Tibetan contemporary painting was featured, for the first time in Italy, in the exhibition Tibetan Visions Contemporary Painting from Tibet, organized by the Italian NGO ASIA Onlus within the wider project “The Commitment of Italian NGOs in Tibet for the safeguard of Tibetan tradition and cultures”, co-funded by the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
