Since 1981, the availability of material has radically altered perceptions of Tibetan art and has raised the issue of connoisseurship. The speed with which the region's rich and distinctive cultural heritage is disappearing has resulted in a renewed effort by international scholars to document and research previously unknown sites. The 35 articles in Art of Tibet examine style, schools, workshops, individual artists and textual sources for styles. Authors include Valrae Reynolds, Jane Casey Singer, Terese Bartholomew, Thomas J. Pritzker, Ian Alsop, Pratapaditya Pal, Joseph Dye, Philip Denwood, Michael Henss, Deborah Klimburg-Salter, Heather Stoddard, Amy Heller, Helmut Neumann, Robert Linrothe, Helmut Uhlig and Christian Luczanits.

Softcover, 320 pages, 410 colour plates and 105 black-and-white images.
