The Third Mind
American Artists Contemplate Asia, 1860–1989
Introduction
The Third Mind: American Artists Contemplate Asia, 1860–1989 considers the dynamic impact of Asian art, literature, music, and philosophy on the development of American art. This guide for educators focuses on
seminal American artists who took inspiration from Asia and reflected that
engagement in their creative work. The guide reflects the structure of the
exhibition, which is divided into seven chronological and thematic sections,
and selects a representative artist from each. Looking at and discussing these works with students can enhance their understanding of American art and how its development has been influenced by specific sources of Asian art
and thought.
