Come to Katonah

For anyone who can make it to Katonah, NY, before January 9, 2oo5, there is a small gem of an exhibit entitled, Eternal Presence: Handprints and Footprints in Buddhist Art. In 2 medium-size rooms, there is a extraordinary exhibt of Buddhist art, much of it Tibetan, but also from India, Pakistan, Burma (Myanmar), Thailand, and Japan, from the 2nd century BCE through the 20th century. Much of the exhibit has never been seen publically before -- and I think that, even though the show will travel to other cities, all the piece in Katonah might not be in the traveling show. Go, go. go.
