Exhibition records, 1998-2005

This record group documents curatorial activities of the former Indian and Himalyan Art department. The records comprising this group at present mostly pertain to the exhibition "Intimate Worlds: Masterpieces of Indian Painting from the Alvin O. Bellak Collections." The exhibition ran from March 2 to April 29, 2001. There are also some general departmental files.

Early records of the department are part of the Far Eastern Art Department Records. For departmental records generated primarily during the tenure of Stella Kramrisch, see the Indian Art Department Records. This record group also includes the files for the 1995 exhibition, "Himalayan Paintings for Buddhist Meditation: Visualization of Passion and Enlightenment," which was held after Kramrisch's death but prior to Mason's curatorial appointment. For related documentation, see also the Stella Kramrisch Personal Papers.
