efforts be grounded in knowledge of the history and traditions embedded
within the objects. This two-day conference will address the distinct
historical and aesthetic differences that inform the rich artistic
traditions of China, Japan, and Korea, as well as the practical concerns
of handling, housing, storage, exhibition and conservation treatment of
paper-based objects from this region.
