SUMMARY:Hidden in Plain Sight: Clay Sculpture in South Asia
DESCRIPTION:Image Credits: Alexander Burnes\, Bamiyan Buddhas\, print 1834\
 nAir-dried clay stands among South Asia’s oldest and most widely used me
 diums for sculpture\, along with stone\, metal\, wood\, and fired clay. Ty
 pically finished in vivid colour\, the medium has been largely overlooked 
 in studies of the region’s arts\, often misidentified as stucco and terr
 acotta\, or sidelined as too breakable and exuberantly coloured to be “a
 rt”’.\n\nThis talk brings together some of the most prominent practice
 s across the subcontinent to consider why painted\, air-dried clay has bee
 n so valued as a medium for figural sculpture\, and what its sidelining re
 veals about the study of art and visual culture.\n\nThis event is in colla
 boration with Art\, Resources and Teaching Trust.
