LHASA TRAIN


20 Artists from Tibet's capital interpret the arrival of the Beijing-Lhasa rail service in an exhibition first shown at Peaceful Wind, Santa Fe, New Mexico, USA September 22 through October 15, 2006. In 2004 Peaceful Wind and the artists of the Gedun Choephel Artists Guild decided to collaborate on a group of paintings to mark this important event in Tibet's history. This exhibition is the result.
