| Summary |
As part of a critical reassessment of European-American art in an international context, many previously marginalized showplaces have been gaining the attention they are due, hence, also the Nepalese capital, Kathmandu. In a large arc from modernism to the vibrant most recent present, the Weltmuseum in Vienna is honoring the outstanding art of Nepal. The exhibition shows how local and global cultures continuously pervade one another and, simultaneously, how Nepalese artists give expression to their own identity.00Exhibition: Weltmuseum, Wien, Austria (11.04. - 06.11.2019). |
