The first-of-its-kind exhibition will feature two sculpture galleries and four digital galleries. It’ll also debut new restorations made to CMA’s 1,500-year-old stone sculpture of Krishna Lifting Mount Govardhan.
The show will include an immersive timeline film narrated by Angelina Jolie and Loung Ung (author of First They Killed My Father) that “illuminates the effects of global change over the past 150 years on the discovery, disposition and conservation of the sculptures from one of the earliest major Hindu sites in Southeast Asia,” as it’s put in a press release.
Tickets to Revealing Krishna: Journey to Cambodia’s Sacred Mountain go on sale to the general public on Sept. 20.
