RICHMOND, VA.- Pilgrimage and Faith: Buddhism, Christianity, and Islam, on view in the Harnett Museum of Art, from January 28 to May 20, 2011, highlights the shared pilgrimage traditions of three world religions—Christianity, Buddhism, and Islam. This exhibition explores how art vivifies and recreates the pilgrimage tradition. Featured are objects dating from the twelfth century to the present, which illuminate the commonalities and differences of the pilgrimage experience among the three faiths. The exhibition features more than 75 historical objects, each associated with one of the three religions. Representative of the Buddhist faith are objects such as a gilt brass figure of the Bodhisattva of Wisdom from China’s Ming dynasty (1368-1644) and a 1977 white pilgrim’s robe with an inscription paying homage
