| The World of Khubilai Khan: Chinese Art in the Yuan Dynasty |
|
|
“This exhibition covers the period from 1215, the year of Khubilai's birth, to 1368, the year of the fall of the Yuan dynasty in China founded by Khubilai Khan, and features every art form, including paintings, sculpture, gold and silver, textiles, ceramics, lacquer, and other decorative arts, religious and secular. The exhibition highlights new art forms and styles generated in China as a result of the unification of China under the Yuan dynasty and the massive influx of craftsmen from all over the vast Mongol Empire—with reverberations in Italian art of the fourteenth century.” Includes the video “The World of Khubilai Khan: A Revolution in Painting,” with Maxwell K. Hearn. See also exhibition publication.
