Details | THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELED. How does place shape one’s identity? How can depictions of the body convey personal and societal power and beliefs? Explore arts of the Indian subcontinent through three exhibitions: A Splendid Land: Paintings from Royal Udaipur, Unstill Waters: Contemporary Photography from India, and The Art of Knowing in South Asia, Southeast Asia, and the Himalayas. Engage in writing, sketching, and slow looking through gallery activities you can adapt for your classroom. Leave with a Learning Lab collection of digital activities and other resources you can use with your learners to connect them to themes that include place, identity, beliefs, power, and the arts of the Indian subcontinent.
