Contemporary Tibetan art is a quickly rising field of interest for art collectors, scholars, and the public alike.  In 2014, the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City acquired its first contemporary Tibetan work from artist Tenzing Rigdol: Pin Drop Silence. Rigdol’s output in the past decade includes paintings, collage, and an installation project in India that was documented in the 2014 film “Bringing Tibet Home.”  For this lecture, Rigdol will be discussing his art and its relation to Tibetan traditions and struggles.

There are two times and places to attend Tenzing Rigdol's lecture, which is being organized by the University of Denver:

Tuesday, October 20th at 6pm
Shwayder Art Buidling, Room 119 at the *University of Denver*

Wednesday, October 21st at noon
Lower Level Lecture Room, Asian Art Association
at the *Denver Art Museum*

Tenzing Rigdol is a contemporary Tibetan artist and published poet. He has exhibited his artworks extensively throughout museums and galleries around the world including the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, the Rubin Museum of Art, and the Queens Museum in addition to solo shows in London and Singapore.
