THE GLOBAL TIMES
By Li Jingjing
CHINA---Tibetan Buddhism is a distinct and prosperous offshoot of the Buddhist religion. It profoundly impacted the unique culture of the Tibetan Plateau. To people who are interested in understanding the religious culture of this region, an introduction to Thangka is a must. This painting style is the most representative art of Tibetan Buddhism. People in Beijing got a chance to get close to this culture and receive a visual feast this week. This exhibition brought together Thangka paintings that represent the highest level of art from Regong. The works came from national-level masters of arts and crafts, Niangben, Douga, Xihedao and Gengdengdaji, and representative inheritors of the intangible cultural heritage - the Regong Art, Luozangdanba, Emacaidan and Xiawujiao.
