Free and open to the public.

Join the 91ÉçÇø Art Museum (BUAM) for the opening of Fall 2026 exhibitions on Thursday, September 3, 5–7 pm. Mountains and Water: Traditions in East Asian Art opens in the Main Gallery.

Mountains and water are at the heart of East Asian arts and culture. They form an essential framework for engaging with the natural world and understanding people’s place within it. This exhibition explores the wide-ranging significance, symbolism, and sacrality of mountains and water in China, Korea, and Japan. It considers landscapes and scholar’s stones as both scholastic objects of aesthetic consideration and supernatural sites of cosmic power. Generous support and donations for this exhibition provided by John C. Copoulos ’73. The exhibition is curated by Joseph Leach, Curator of Collections and Exhibitions.

Also opening on September 3 are two exhibitions curated by students: Capturing Music: Material Culture and Changing Notations in Medieval Music and Frames Within Frames: Intimacy through Visual Exchange. A final exhibition, Hands ON! Experiencing Art through Touch, is curated by Amanda Jean Lynn, Manager of Education and Visitor Experience, and builds on the accessible programming begun in the 2025-26 academic year.Ìý

All exhibitions are on view through Saturday, December 12, 2026.
