With oil paintings by Thai artist Atipong Padanupong
To coincide with the international conference “Archiving Culture in the Digital Age” at the Princess Maha Chakri Sirinthorn Anthropology Center, this exhibition is based on Serindia’s book of the same title, which recounts the history and illustrates photographs of the German expedition led by Ernst Schäfer to Tibet in 1938.
