“In and Out of Context: Asia Society Celebrates the Collections at 60” Exhibition

Asia Society and Museum

This event has ended.

On the occasion of the 60th anniversary of the founding of Asia Society, this exhibition celebrates the legacy of collecting and exhibiting Asian art that John D. Rockefeller 3rd and Blanchette Hooker Rockefeller set in motion for Asia Society. This exhibition plays with the notion of context by juxtaposing historical and contemporary works to trigger distinctive ways of thinking about artworks and the people that produce them, both past and present. The exhibition is a testament to the visionary commitment to Asia and its art begun by Mr. and Mrs. John D. Rockefeller 3rd, and that continues to the present at Asia Society.
