To celebrate the 40th Anniversary of Art Museum, the Institute of Chinese Studies had invited the world renowned art historian and curator Prof. Dame Jessica Rawson, Professor of Chinese Art and Archaeology, University of Oxford, to give a public lecture on ‘China and Central Asia: Exoticism in China — Sixth to Eight Century CE’ on 20 October to celebrate the 40th Anniversary of the Art Museum. She also inaugurated the opening of ‘Chinese Sculptures: from the Muwen Tang Collection’ exhibition which is one of this year’s key celebratory events. Around 100 sculptures made of jade, stone, pottery and wood, which span from the Neolithic period through the Qing Dynasty are now on display. Pottery figurines of the Han and Tang dynasties, and Buddhist statues from the Northern Dynasties till the Liao and the Song, form the two substantial categories. The exhibition will last until January 2012.
