SUMMARY:Dallas\, TX | "Lives of the Gods: Divinity in Maya Art" at the Kimbell Art Museum with Jennifer Casler Price
DESCRIPTION:Join ArtTable at The Kimbell Art Museum for a guided tour of Lives of the Gods: Divinity in Maya Art led by Curator of Asian\, African\, and Ancient American Art\, Jennifer Casler Price.  \n\n\n\nAn exhibition of nearly 100 rarely seen masterpieces and recent discoveries depicts episodes in the life cycle of the gods\, from the moment of their birth to resplendent transformations as blossoming flowers or fearsome creatures of the night. Created by masters of the Classic period (A.D. 250–900) in the spectacular royal cities in the tropical forests of what is now Guatemala\, Honduras\, and Mexico\, these landmark works evoke a world in which the divine\, human\, and natural realms are interrelated and intertwined. Lenders include major museum collections in Europe\, the United States\, and Latin America\, with many works on view for the first time in the U.S.\, including new discoveries from Palenque (Mexico) and El Zotz (Guatemala). \n\n\n\n“Mind-blowing”– New York Magazine  \n\n\n\n“Totally riveting”– The New York Times  \n\n\n\n“A magnificent show”— The New Yorker \n\n\n\nFor more information on the exhibition click here. \n\n\n\nAdmission: \n\n\n\n\nArtTable Members – $20\n\n\n\nMember Guests – $30\n\n\n\nPublic -$35\n\n\n\nIf you are a current Kimbell Museum member\, please email programs@arttable org to book your registration\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThank you to Heather Reichstadt for initiating this program\, and Louky Keijsers Koning for coordinating. \n\n\n\n• • •\n\n\n\nImage credit: “Whistle with the Maize God Emerging from a Flower.” Maya\, Mexico Late Classic period\, 600–900 Ceramic with pigment\, 8 1/8 x 2 in.
