Boston, MA. ---The Brant Gallery at Massachusetts College of Art is pleased to host Pema Rinzin, a master Tibetan tangka painter, as our Artist- in- Residence. Rinzin studied Tibetan tangka painting from 1979 to 1983 in Dharamsala, India. He also taught painting at the Tibetan Children’s Village school in Dharamsala from 1984 to 1992. From 1995 to 2004, he was an artist-in-residence at the Shoko Temple and Institute in Japan, where he completed eight major Buddhist tangkas for Yuko Miyasaka, the abbot of the Shingon Temple in Nagano, Japan. After completing his residency, he traveled to Bamberg, Germany, where he had his first European exhibition at the City Gallery.
Pema’s most recent project is a large mural installation of the Four Great Guardian Kings at the Rubin Museum of art in New York city in conjunction with the exhibition entitled Take to the Sky: Flying Mystics in Himalayan Art..
“It is my hope that by witnessing the process by which Tibetan tangkas are made, viewers will gain a deeper appreciation and understanding of the art of the Himalayas, both from a historical perspective and as it is practiced as a living tradition.”
