Now available via GOOD DOCS, the Video Librarian says that Sheri Brenner's short documentary about Tibetan artist Tsherin Sherpa will "fascinate students of Tibetan art and culture because it shows the clear intersection of diaspora and artistic expression. Instructors of modern art may be particularly interested in this fascinating expose on Tsherin Sherpa because it can easily fit within a single class period. Students of Buddhism may be interested in Tsherin’s use of symbolism and his symbolic statements on the West’s ideas of divinity through a Buddhist lens. Highly Recommended."

« Remittance Economy » (2018), par Tsherin Sherpa, artiste peintre originaire du Népal, vivant aux Etats unis, dont le travail navigue entre de l’iconographie bouddhiste tibétaine classique et le regard présent sur le monde, entre tradition et abstraction.
« À travers le prisme de la diaspora himalayenne, mon travail traite simultanément de la préservation et de la transformation d’une culture dispersée, en jetant un pont entre le sacré et le séculier, entre l’histoire passée et le contemporain. En tant que peuple nomade, nous avons appris au fil des siècles à exploiter notre capacité à nous adapter à de nombreux environnements différents. En observant cette migration, mes propres expériences et spécificités culturelles sont explorées à travers la représentation et la réappropriation de l’iconographie traditionnelle tibétaine. »

If nothing else, Lucio did pump a lot of cash into the pockets of various Vesuvian artists. Whether this was good for one's artistic reputation or not is debatable, but if you were willing and able to realize Lucio's latest wildly kinky fantasy image, you certainly would not go hungry.
The Temple Painter was spotted during one of Lucio's tours of the district, where he would make a big show of 'providing for his people' by tossing alms and sweets to the impoverished outside the temples. (Never mind that he could have provided much more by actually paying for civic infrastructure projects...)
By its very nature, the esoteric subject matter that the Temple Painter specializes in involves a great deal of highly-adorned nudity and representations of sacred sexual congress, all of it in bright colors and shining gold. Of course this drew the eye of the Count, who was not to be refused in this way.
But the Temple Painter didn't suffer through all those sittings staring at the Count's gleaming, freshly-waxed buttcheeks for nothing - with time, they went from living in a cramped rented space in one of Vesuvia's many insulae to outright purchasing a rather nice little flat in the Temple District itself.
(A/N wrt sacred art under the cut)
The linked images were made by my own painting teacher, who was trained in the Karma Gadri style of thangka painting, a lineage originating from the 8th Karmapa. Thangka painting is very rigorous and well-defined, and while there is some artistic license available in ornamentation choices and such, by and large it is a tightly prescribed art form. To be done properly, it requires direct transmission from a teacher - that is, you must interact with someone who has been trained and have them oversee your work.
However, its overall style and decorative elements do transfer well to other forms of artwork, and some contemporary thangka artists are also creating social commentary and pop-art works alongside their sacred art, like Ang Tsherin Sherpa.
#Count Crispies#me out here catering to me and a handful of my friends lol#I think it's hilarious that my dumb self-insert is probably the one who interacted the most with Lucio ahaha#they STILL need a name#Yeshe the temple painter
