Revolutionizing WHERE THE ART COMES ALIVE first article REVOLUTIONIZING ART Gopal Das Shrestha, also known as Kalapremi, is a Kathmandu-based self-taught artist and ceramist. He has dedicated the last 35 years to ceramic art, teaching in multiple universities in Nepal, Pakistan and other countries. He has exhibited his works in numerous galleries around the world. Kalapremi’s new work titled “a:tL a:tLaf6 p7” is inspired from the old Nepali song “ufpF ufpFaf6 p7”. He regards this revolutionary song as a masterpiece, not often played on the radio, nor easily available in cassettes, during his childhood days. The song was censored, as if it was a crime to listen to it, because the words motivate citizens to stand up for their rights.

In those days we thought of an artist as one who painted signboards, which in Nepal are very often decorative. The more talented ones progressed to portraits, or religious works.

While Nepali ceramic works were never as refined as those from China, India or Bangladesh, they were and are a part of our culture. This decline concerns me, for it is important to keep and develop our artistic traditions. One way to foster a renewal is to modernize both design and production, and to create both and interest and a market for such works. MoNA is one such vessel to bring this about. Employment would encourage the coming generation. To this end my son joined me, as have other young students, in my studio/work shop.

People have always confined and abused animals, showing extremes of cruelty. Where his view is that the Earth is our common home, and all living beings should have equal rights. This painting depicts an image of a deity whose many heads are replaced by a buffalo, cow, pig, Asha (the artist) and Erina (his wife). By provoking our senses, Asha, gives us a chance to correct our mistakes. His message, ‘We are but mere guests on Earth for a very short time, so let us treat others as we would like to be treated. Yes, treat Mother Earth with love and respect, make her greener, clear the seas and the skies, and become better beings ourselves.’ This painting aims to renew our perception of our planet and our environment, lighting a path to coexistence and mutual sustenance. ‘We don’t own but merely share Mother Earth with all her creations.’ concludes Asha. NEW AVATAR Asha Dangol BY ASHA DANGOL Freelance Artist, Lalitpur, NEPAL EKKAIS DIN - 21 DAYS With the rising COVID-19 crisis, I cut short my month-long art residency in Vienna and reluctantly returned to 21 days of voluntary self-imprisonment. Fearful that I could be carrying the virus, I stayed in my room, staring at the outside world through the grill. Stigmatization of Nepali returnees and hate speech on Facebook made me feel like an outsider in my own home. Memories resurfaced of my teenage days in lock-down during the menstrual cycle. I sympathize with the women who have to go through the cruel and demeaning ‘chaupadi’ system (isolation in a hut during menstruation). This is now illegal in Nepal, but superstitions and traditions are strong so it is still practiced by many. ‘During this time of isolation, I was drawn ever closer to Klimt’s, ‘The Kiss’. The essence of that painting - love - reminds me of the need for love now more than ever. The resentment of reaching Austria, yet not being able to see it with my own eyes, also features in mine. Ekkais Din represents my travels, self-isolation and emotional turmoil during those difficult days.’ Bidhata KC Visual Artist, Kathmandu, NEPAL.

  • Freer Sackler Fact Sheet
    Fact Sheet Freer|Sackler Smithsonian Institution ABOUT THE FREER|SACKLER The Freer Gallery of Art and Arthur M. Sackler Gallery, located on the National Mall in Washington, DC, comprise the Smithsonian’s museum of Asian art. The Freer|Sackler contains one of the most important collections of Asian art in the world, featuring more than 40,000 objects dating from the Neolithic period to the present day, with especially fine groupings of Islamic art; Chinese jades, bronzes, and paintings; and the art of the ancient Near East. The museum also contains important masterworks from Japan, ancient Egypt, South and Southeast Asia, and Korea, as well as a noted collection of American art. The Freer|Sackler is committed to expanding public knowledge of the collections through exhibitions, research, and publications. As of 2016, the Freer building is closed for renovation. It will reopen in 2017 with modernized technology and infrastructure, refreshed gallery spaces, and an enhanced Eugene and Agnes E. Meyer Auditorium. Visit asia.si.edu/future for more information. BACKGROUND AND COLLECTIONS Charles Lang Freer, a self-taught connoisseur, began purchasing American art in the 1880s. With the encouragement of American artist James McNeill Whistler (1834–1903), Freer also began to collect Asian art, assembling a preeminent group of works. In 1904, Freer offered his collection to the nation, to be held in trust by the Smithsonian Institution. The Freer Gallery of Art opened to the public in 1923—the first Smithsonian museum dedicated to fine art. The Freer’s collection spans six thousand years and many different cultures. Besides Asian art, the Freer houses a collection of nineteenth- and early twentieth-century American art, including the world’s largest number of works by Whistler.

    “Any reasonable person understands easily how great an obligation the Museum will have from now on. For a fundamental, in-depth study of political, material and intel- lectual history, the broader public – and especially students – need museums where everyone can see the material remains that are the physical expression of the history they read... The Museum of Georgia is a grand establishment. One – it has to portray past and modern culture and, to this end, collect artifacts and other materials to en- sure a comprehensive, scientific study of Georgia. Two – it has a social obligation – to help the public and, especially, young students to enhance their knowledge of history. And three – the Museum of Georgia, as the highest-level scientific institution, should be conducting intensive scientific work.” “On the main goals of the Museum”, Ivane Javakhishvili, 1935 The creation of a “museum culture” in Georgia is linked to developments in the middle of the 19th century. In 1852 a museum was founded as the Caucasus branch of the Russian Geographic Society, and was the first diversified scientific and educational establishment of its kind. In the following years, this museum provided the basis for the establishment of the Caucasian Museum, the Museum of the Society for the Spread- ing of Literacy, the Church Museum and the Museum of Military History – the “Temple of Glory”. The Caucasian Museum, established by famous scholar Gustav Radde in 1865, and the “Tiflis Public Library”, founded in 1846, were unified in 1868 under a single management system and named the “Caucasian Museum and Tiflis Public Library”.
