THAILAND---A comprehensive exhibition on Buddhist art in Thailand across 1,500 years explores the many unique styles that developed in the making of Buddha images and other decorative ritual objects as a result of Thailand’s unique blend of religions and beliefs. “Enlightened Ways: The Many Streams of Buddhist Art in Thailand,” now showing at the Asian Civilisations Museum (ACM) in Singapore, presents over 100 artifacts drawn from 11 of Thailand’s museums, as well as items from the ACM’s own collection. It underlines the wide range of styles seen through sculptures, furniture, jewelry, paintings, manuscripts, and ceramics. [link]
