330 MILLION FACES:
HINDU DEITIES
THROUGH APRIL 27
The Hindu pantheon
has, in a famous example of hyperbole, over 330 million deities. In
a sense India is God-intoxicated, there is god everywhere, in all
things: within/without, above/below, in the six degrees of
separation and in the three planes of existence.
There are gods for vegetation,
weather, nature, geographical areas; there are gods in villages,
houses, the temples, running water, the deepest forest and in icy
mountain heights. There is no situation, environment and place that
the Indian does not have a god for. Gods inspire, gods infuse art
and creativity and gods provoke destruction too.
In this rich
exhibition featuring paintings on silk, the three key Hindu deities
are showcased (Brahma
The Creator, Vishnu The Protector or Preserver, and Shiva The
Destroyer) along with numerous other Hindu deities. Though
Hinduism’s roots are centuries old, modern India is still steeped in
the rich, complex traditions of this global religion.
This exhibit gives
a glimpse into the traditions and history of Hinduism and offers a
feast for the eyes via a riot of color, texture, and detail.
