Inter-area/Border Crossing
Organized Panel Session
This panel examines the various patterns of trans-East Asian Buddhist exchanges in the medieval period. An archetypal approach to the study of East Asian Buddhist art revolves around the notion of an artistic relay: India was regarded as the source of inspiration for China, and China in turn influenced artistic production in the Korean peninsula and Japan. While this narrative form holds great truth, it has the implicit baggage of assuming that art in the host country is only derivative and obscures a deep understanding of the complexity of transnational exchanges.
