Wisdom & Compassion: The Sacred Art of Tibet [1990]

HK$400

• Artist: Tibetan



Tibetans create art to open windows from the ordinary, earthly world onto a perfected universe. Their tangka paintings, sculptures, and mandalas are regarded as points of transition from the coarse world we know to the perfected enlightenment realm of pure wisdom and compassion. Written by two renowned scholars of Buddhist art and thought, Marilyn M. Rhie and Robert A. F. Thurman, with contributions by a number of prominent curators from around the world, this book illuminates the most important and comprehensive exhibition of Tibetan art ever seen in the west.
