NYC Museum Displays Stolen Art from Tibet; Tibetans and Rights Groups Plan Protests

In 2005, Tibetan organizations protested the Rubin Museum's exhibition entitled "Tibet: Treasures from the Roof of the World." Loaned to the museum by the Chinese government, the exhibit included object relatives acquired from the Potala Palace, Norbulingka Palace, and Tibet Museum following the illegal occupation of Tibet in 1949-50. The museum avoided naming this context, choosing to comfortably consume Tibet and Tibetans without considering how we and our objects come to be displaced from our homelands. The Rubin Museum's refusal to meaningfully engage with Tibetan histories and realities stretches into the present.
