More often than the sacred beings of other cultures, the gods of Hinduism and Buddhism dance. They express their
creative and destructive energies through fluid rhythmic movements, setting the pulse of the universe. In benign moods, they dance gracefully in divine play. In stern moods, they dance with a force that, if fully unleashed, could destroy worlds. Forrest McGill, Wattis Senior Curator of South and Southeast Asian Art and Director of the Research Institute for Asian Art, will illuminate these ideas through sculptures and paintings depicting deities, including Shiva, Krishna and the elephant-headed Ganesha, together with video clips of dance performances.
