In Conversation: Copies and Creativity in East Asian Art
When: Sun., Aug. 18, 3-4 p.m. 2019
Through works of art spanning ancient to contemporary times, UMMA's exhibition Copies and Invention in East Asia challenges our understanding of originality, and presents copying as an act of imaginative interpretation. Join Natsu Oyobe, exhibition curator and Curator of Asian Art, for a discussion of these works and how the practice of copying has been a source of creativity and innovation within a variety of artistic practices across the region from past to present.
