Lecture & Reception with Dr. Puja Batra
From Texas Plains to the Himalayan High Desert
Thursday, May 24

It is an area in which remote and harsh conditions have tightly interlinked Ladakhi culture with its environment. Dr. Batra will share photographs and talk about her experiences in Ladakh and the relationship between culture and the environment in Ladakh's changing climate.
Free for Friends of the Crow Collection, $10 for the public. Space is limited, call 214-979-6438 for reservations.

On the Silk Road and the High Seas: Chinese Ceramics, Culture and Commerce
September 1, 2012–January 27, 2013
On the Silk Road and the High Seas: Chinese Ceramics, Culture and Commerce examines why Chinese ceramics were such prized commodities, both at home and abroad. Examples of proto-porcelain appeared in China about 3,000 years ago and hard-paste porcelain began to be made around 1,800 years ago. This precious product was sometimes called "white gold," especially in the West. Foreign trade and changing domestic markets played a role in stimulating Chinese potters to continually reinvent their repertoire of shapes and decorative techniques. These exchanges also illuminate important episodes in cultural history.
