The catalogue presents for the first time the rich Tibetan artistic
heritage through the collection of Michael and Justyna Buddeberg:
carpet manufacture, craftwork in metal and the manufacture of
furniture. Previously neglected aspects of everyday Tibetan culture
are explored and make the catalogue an essential starting point for
further research. The Buddeberg collection includes masterpieces of
Tibetan art in textile and metal work and presents us with hitherto
disregarded asp ects of the Tibetan approach to art. Carpets for
sitting on or as a riding accessory played a central role in their
traditional culture but have hitherto been neglected in research,
as has metal craftwork, which focused on the ornamentation of end
knobs on the poles supporting the cultic paintings. The lavishly
illustrated catalogue closes this gap and presents together with
contributions by acknowledged specialists an in - depth overview of
the fields of carpet and textile art, metalwork and furniture
produc tion.
