Beauty Revealed: Images of Women in Qing Dynasty China
CHANGE OF DATE AND TIME. The new date and time is Sunday, October 6th at 1:00 pm.
This exhibition investigates a relatively unexamined area of Chinese art history: meiren (beautiful women) paintings from the 17th and 18th centuries. It is the first to bring together a broad selection in this genre, and includes work from public and private collections in the United States and Europe as well as from the Museum’s own collection (Courtesy BAM/PFA). The 45 minute tour will be led by Julia M. White, Senior Curator of Asian Art.
Following the tour members will have the opportunity to attend a talk by Dr. James Cahill at the Berkeley Art Museum at 3:00 pm.
Organized by Julia White in collaboration with UC Berkeley Professor Emeritus James Cahill, one of the world’s leading authorities on Chinese paintings, this exhibition is accompanied by a catalogue.
