DESCRIPTION:Gallery talks are casual conversations between artists\, curators\, and other special guests with NOMA visitors frequently scheduled throughout the year. Louisiana residents receive free admission to NOMA on Wednesdays courtesy of The Helis Foundation. \nYu Jiang\, Director of the Confucius Institute at Xavier University\, will discuss the exhibition Buddha and Shiva\, Lotus and Dragon: Masterworks from the Mr. and Mrs. John D.

Dr. Jiang received his B.A. in Archaeology from Beijing University in 1997\, and Ph.D. in Chinese Art History from the University of Pittsburgh in Pennsylvania in 2004.  His research investigates bronze and jade art of early dynastic China\, particularly the Western Zhou from the eleventh to eighth centuries BCE\, with focus on material culture\, identity\, and socio-political discourse.  His publications cover much later periods as well\, including the casting technology of bronze drums from Southeast Asia.

Studies have shown that students enrolled in Young Audiences programs outperformed their peers on standardized tests\, exhibited fewer disciplinary issues\, and had increased school attendance. \nAbout Wolf Trap Institute\nYoung Audiences / Louisiana Wolf Trap has been an affiliate of The Wolf Trap Institute for Early Learning Through the Arts since 2010. The Wolf Trap Institute for Early Learning Through the Arts\, a program of the Wolf Trap Foundation\, was established in 1981 under a grant from the Head Start Bureau of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services serving children birth through kindergarten. The goal of the Institute is to provide early childhood educators with professional development training in the use of performing arts techniques within educational curriculum goals and outcomes for young children. The infusion of arts-based techniques into daily routines provides powerful teaching strategies that can be used to enhance all areas of development\, including emergent literacy\, self-esteem and socialization\, problem solving\, receptive and expressive language\, motor skills and self-regulation\, science and math\, conceptualization\, and creativity\, in order to provide a solid foundation for all future learning. \n

Along it traveled precious cargoes of silk\, gold\, and ivory\, as well as revolutionary new ideas. Its oasis towns blossomed into thriving centers of Buddhist art and learning. In time it began to decline. Traffic slowed\, merchants left\, and towns vanished beneath the desert sands to be forgotten for a thousand years. Legends grew of lost cities filled with treasures and in the early years of the last century foreign explorers began to investigate these stories. Art and manuscripts were carried away and today are scattered through museums of a dozen countries. Peter Hopkirk tells the story of the intrepid men who\, at great personal risk\, led these long-range archaeological raids. \nTUESDAY\, APRIL 14\, 12 – 1 pm | CURATORIAL PROGRAM \nTUESDAY\, APRIL 28\, 12 – 1 pm | BOOK DISCUSSION GROUP
