Boldly reinterpreting the age-old Tibetan and Nepalese art form known as Thangka, this stunning book offers beautifully detailed representations of mandalas from the artist’s internationally best-selling books Celestial Gallery, Buddhas of the Celestial Gallery, and Goddesses of the Celestial Gallery, as well as newly published paintings. Simply gazing upon the mandalas is meant to inspire in the viewer a heightened state of intention and clarity. Master painter Romio Shrestha and his team of artisan monks have created postmodern versions of these enlightened Buddha realms from hand-ground malachite, lapis, marigolds, and other rare substances. Painted at times with a mere three hairs from the tail of a cat, these multifaceted scenes of otherworldly deities are rich with hauntingly powerful detail. Depictions of White Tara, Green Tara, the Medicine Buddha, and many other celestial beings invite and inspire meditation and reflection. Shrestha’s captivating artwork is accompanied by a foreword from Deepak Chopra and illuminating commentary from cultural historian Ian A. Baker.
AMAZING ART: Features striking artwork from master painter Romio Shrestha and his team of artisan monks, who offer postmodern interpretations of an age-old Tibetan artistic tradition rendered in hauntingly powerful detail.
WORLD-RENOWNED ARTIST: Romio Shrestha's thangkas can be found in many of the great collections of the world, including the British Museum, the Victoria Albert Museum, the Buchheim Museum, the American Museum of Natural History, the Tibet House in New York City, and the Newark Museum in New Jersey. He directs a school of artist-craftsmen in the Kathmandu Valley of Tibet.
HIGH-QUALITY DESIGN: With a cloth cover, premium paper and binding, and a large 9.6” x 14” format, The Celestial Galleries is a high-quality collector’s item to cherish for decades to come.
FOREWORD BY DEEPAK CHOPRA: Includes a foreword by international bestselling author Deepak Chopra, a world-renowned leader in spirituality.
