Join Dr. Liu Yang, Mia’s Chair of Asian Art and Curator of Chinese Art, for a special lecture celebrating Year of the Horse: Hoofbeats Through Time, now on view at Mia.In this illuminating talk, Year of the Horse: In the Wake of the Gallop, Dr. Liu examines the horse as one of the most enduring and evocative symbols in Chinese art and culture. Drawing on works spanning more than three millennia—from ritual bronzes and tomb figures to imperial jades & paintings, as well as intimate scholar’s objects—he traces how images of the horse came to embody power, mobility, virtue, and aspiration. The lecture offers behind-the-scenes insight into the exhibition’s thematic vision and reflects on how cultural symbols continue to shape artistic expression and human experience across time.
