The seminars, organized by ASIA Onlus in collaboration with the Centre of Buddhist Studies of the University of Naples 'L'Orientale' and the University of Rome 'La Sapienza', aimed at bringing together Tibetan artists, researchers and specialists in different fields of Tibetan art and culture. Tibetan painters, theatre performers and film directors were invited to share their experience of portraying, enacting and representing Tibetan in the present time, between tradition and modernity; whilst scholars were asked to give an up-to-date contribution on the ongoing debate on the issue of Tibetan culture in contemporary times."
