The art of China, Korea, and Japan is filled with elements that hold deep meaning. Whether a painted lotus flower, or beautiful ink script, the images show us the importance that history, culture, and ritual hold in this part of the world. This exhibition hopes to celebrate the impact Asian art has had on personal and cultural attempts to make meaning in what can seem like a shallow world.
