Professor Jinah Kim's "Dharma & Punya" Exhibition Named "Best of Art of 2019" by New York Times.

December 6, 2019

An exhibition co-curated by Professor Jinah Kim has been named in the New York Times' "Best of Art 2019" list. The exhibition "Dharma and Punya: Buddhist Ritual Art of Nepal" is currently on display at the Cantor Art Gallery at the College of the Holy Cross in Worcestor, Mass. It will be running until December 14th. The New York Times described it as:

 Assembled by two scholars, Jinah Kim and Todd T. Lewis, it uses objects to tell a tale of the little-studied traditions of a popular religious art in the Kathmandu Valley, an art that is devotional, intensely social and inevitably political, and one that takes the pursuit of do-no-harm generosity as its subject, creed and goal.
