Live on Zoom + at UNC Asheville [One University Heights, Asheville, NC]
Presented as part of the Faith in Arts Institute, a partnership between BMCM+AC and UNC Asheville

The arts were considered forms of Ch’an (Zen) Buddhist practice in ancient China, and mountain landscape played an important part in that practice. Hinton will outline Ch’an insight. Then, starting from that understanding, he will discuss how Ch’an shaped the arts in ancient China, and how it migrated to America in the twentieth century, where it shaped poetry and visual-art in fundamental ways, a process in which John Cage and Black Mountain played a major role.
