UAB professors Dr. Cathleen Cummings (Art History) and Dr. Cynthia Ryan (English), with VCU professor Dr. Dina Bangdel (Art History) and their students study the art history and religion of both Buddhism and Hinduism concentrated in the artistically rich environment of Kathmandu Valley. Students will also study the intersections between the unique cultural landscape of Nepal and Nepalese understandings of the physical and spiritual body.
