Where
This landmark exhibition on the extraordinary philosopher, statesman and teacher known as Confucius (551- 479 BCE) will be on view at China Institute Gallery from February 11 through June 13, 2010. CONFUCIUS: His Life and Legacy in Art will focus on the life, teachings and continuing influence of Confucius, who has become increasingly synonymous with Chinese culture. Nearly 100 objects from the world of Confucius and his ennobled descendants will be on exhibition, including hanging scrolls, album leaves, bronze vessels, stone carvings, jade ceremonial implements, wood-block prints and textiles. The works are on loan for the first time in the U.S. from the Shandong Provincial Museum in Jinan and the Confucius Museum in his hometown of Qufu. CONFUCIUS: His Life and Legacy in Art is the first exhibition in the U.S. to explore the culture of Confucius. The show incorporates images and artifacts that were created to venerate the man himself, as well as the ideas associated with him, loosely called Confucianism. A fully illustrated scholarly catalogue will accompany the exhibition.
