【字体:小 大】Abstract: Museums throughout the world are filled with a variety of Asian religious images and icons, depictions of Buddhas, guardian deities, and saintly figures, which are usually rendered in stone, metal, wood, clay or lacquer. The Chinese icons and images in those collections tend to be examples of what is termed “elite” or “high” art and are often representations of gods and deities from a standard pantheon comprised of popular national deities and common Buddhist figures. It is now clear, however, that a different class of images and icons also circulated at a more diffused level of society and we are now also aware of a variety of images that were filled with different kinds of contents. The contents of those images might include Daoist talismans, Buddhist texts, relic fragments, symbolic organs, or consecration certificates. In this talk I intend to probe the origins of the practice of interring objects in statues and ask what can we learn when we shift our gaze from external aesthetics to explore what is found inside images? How has the discourse on idolatry and iconoclasm, which critiques practices such as interring things in stautes in order to give them life, conditioned the reception of these popular images?
