Indonesia's rich and diverse textile traditions will be highlighted in this exhibition of more than ninety works dating from the early fifteenth through twentieth centuries. Extremely rare textiles that have been radiocarbon dated to as early as 1403 will be shown. The cultural origins and influences of the varied ethnic, linguistic, and religious groups inhabiting the many islands of Indonesia will be seen in a dazzling array of abstract, figurative, and geometric design motifs.

This exhibition is organized by the Los Angeles County Museum of Art and curated by Sharon Takeda, costume and textiles, and Mary Kahlenberg, guest curator.
