Channeling Immortality: Chinese Scholars’ Rocks

Norton Museum of Art
1451 S. Olive Avenue,
West Palm Beach, Florida, USA
Mar 22, 2018 To May 06, 2018


Detail: For centuries, Chinese scholars have believed that cosmic energy coalesces into fantastic-looking rocks, and that longevity and quietude are achieved through the love of such rocks. Large enough to be displayed in gardens or small enough to be set on a desk, this exhibition features striking examples of these rocks as well as paintings and other related works of art.
