Whether considered as places of eternal or finite punishment, underworlds provide a rich setting for a potent cast of characters that have caught the imaginations of artists and patrons who have shaped the visual cultures of Asia's system of belief, particularly Buddhism, Hinduism, Jainism, and Islam. Trough masterpieces from West Asia, South Asia, Southeast Asia, East Asia, and the diaspora, paired with essays from renowned scholars, this publication explores both differences and similarities in conceptions of the afterlife and artistic practices from religion to religion and culture to culture. This journey trough judgment, punishment, and even the promise of salvation sheds light on the fundamental questions of life, death and existence."-- From publisher's website. 650 0 $a Hell in art $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Art, Asian $v Exhibitions. 650 6 $a Art asiatique. 650 7 $a Art, Asian. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00815951 650 7 $a Hell in art. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00954750 655 7 $a exhibition catalogs. $2 aat 655 7 $a Exhibition catalogs. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01424028 700 1 $a Proser, Adriana G., $e editor. 710 2 $a Asia Society. $b Museum, $e host institution. 710 2 $a Asian Art Museum of San Francisco, $e host institution. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117022636.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=3E5AC4786D7C11EEBBB0FB5526ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
