SUMMARY:Exploring Asian Art: Form\, Function\, and Interpretation
DESCRIPTION:Spend three days exploring works of Asian art on display at the Seattle Art
  Museum and Seattle Asian Art Museum. In partnership with the East Asia Res
 ource Center at the University of Washington\, we will consider the origina
 l context within which objects were created and follow them along their pat
 hs of trade\, transformation\, and influence. This session will include clo
 se consideration of objects of devotion\, utilitarian objects\, and contemp
 orary expressions crafted from a multitude of materials and taking shape in
  various forms. Additionally\, we will discuss points of inspiration taken 
 by artists who encounter these works anew and as part of the legacy of thei
 r cultural heritage.\nThis three-day intensive workshop will connect the ob
 jects in the collection of the Seattle Art Museum to curriculum across subj
 ects\, including Social Studies\, Visual Art\, World History\, Language Art
 s\, Asian Studies\, and Art History. Engage with resources firsthand and ex
 plore what you can bring back to your classroom. Educators from the Seattle
  Art Museum and the East Asia Resource Center will provide frameworks for i
 ntegrating the museum collection into your teaching practice.
