Jyoti Duwadi: Himalaya To Cascadia

Spanning ecology, Asian spirituality and contemporary Western art, Nepali American artist Jyoti Duwadi’s retrospective at the Western Gallery should interest visitors with its broad range of subjects, themes and content. Curator Barbara Matilsky selects examples from over a 50-year period, including forerunners of Earth Art and sculptures that blend Minimalist art with ancient craft traditions. Like the Bengali poet Rabindranath Tagore, Duwadi creates a bridge between deeply layered cultural phenomena and modernist forms and shapes.
