Art Talk Live: Race and Gender in Heaven and Hell

Art Talk Live: Race and Gender in Heaven and Hell

Presented by Harvard Art Museums at Harvard Art Museums

This talk centers on One of the Ten Kings of Hell, a hanging scroll from Ming dynasty China (1368–1644) that will be on view in July. The discussion considers the unique vision of the afterlife presented in East Asian Buddhist art and sheds light on how gender and otherness have shaped these images of hell.

Led by:
Seung Hee Oh, graduate student intern, Division of Asian and Mediterranean Art
