Innovation in Southeast Asian Ceramics Studies: The Work of Roxanna Brown

3:00 PM - 5:00 PM
10383 Bunche Hall
UCLA Campus
Los Angeles, CA 90095
Free and open to the public.
Web announcement here.

A symposium with Robert L. Brown, Caverlee Cary, and Nhung Tuyet Tran. In 2004 art historian Roxanna Brown completed a dissertation at UCLA entitled "The Ming Gap and Shipwreck Ceramics in Southeast Asia," accelerating a long career as an expert on Southeast Asian ceramics and the history of maritime trade in Asia.  Because her untimely death in May 2008 cut short her potential contribution to this important field, several of her colleagues will join to pay tribute to her work and to reflect on the challenges ahead for the field.

Sponsored by the UCLA Center for Southeast Asian Studies.
