We will visit the newly opened Berkeley Art Museum with Senior Curator for Asian Art Julia White, who will lead us through their current exhibition on Chinese paintings,Summer Trees Casting Shade: Chinese Painting at Berkeley, the First Fifty Years. This exhibition celebrates the breadth and depth of BAM's acclaimed Chinese paintings collection with 50 works of art on display from the 13th to 20th Century, some from the collection and gift of the late Professor James Cahill, who was instrumental in building this fabulous collection at Berkeley.
