Viewpoints and Attitudes: Asian Art and the Western World is an invitation to consider how artists represent their culture, and the impact of other cultures, in their art. This exhibit explores the viewpoints and attitudes artists reveal about themselves and how they are influenced to imagine people on the other side of the world.

Viewpoints and Attitudes was researched and curated by the 2021-2022 Arthur E. Klauser Fellow, Caleigh Ranjo ‘21. This exhibition builds on her scholarly interests in material culture, cultural exchange and relations between Asia and the Western World.

DePauw alumni who have donated their art collections and objects to the Peeler Galleries made this exhibit possible. With their generosity and underwriting, the long tradition of cultural exchange at DePauw continues.
