Share Share Share Share

Reliance Industries Limited, in collaboration with Nita Ambani, Founder and Chairperson of Reliance Foundation, is set to unveil a mesmerizing exhibition titled “Tree & Serpent: Early Buddhist Art in India, 200 BCE–400 CE” at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met) on July 21st. This extraordinary exhibition, made possible through the support of Reliance Industries and Nita Ambani’s philanthropic efforts, explores the origins of Buddhist art, showcasing over 125 ancient Indian artifacts.

The Importance of Indian Art

Nita Ambani, an avid supporter of The Met, became the first Indian individual to serve as an Honorary Trustee of the museum in 2019. In her role, she has been instrumental in introducing exquisite Indian art to global audiences. The “Tree & Serpent” exhibition holds tremendous significance as it highlights the deep-rooted connection between Buddhism and India, paying homage to the rich heritage and teachings of the Buddha that continue to shape global thought.

Preview Event and Distinguished Guests

A special preview of the exhibition, attended by Nita Ambani and hosted by Max Hollein, The Met’s Marina Kellen French Director, witnessed the presence of esteemed personalities from the art world and beyond. Notable figures such as Indian Ambassador to the United States, Taranjit Singh Sandhu, US Ambassador to India, Eric Garcetti, and John Guy, the Met’s Florence and Herbert Irving Curator of South and Southeast Asian art and curator of “Tree & Serpent,” were in attendance.

Exploring the Exhibition

“Tree & Serpent” offers a unique curation of over 125 objects dating back to the period from 200 BCE to 400 CE. The exhibition revolves around interlocking themes that delve into the relics and reliquaries of ancient India. Visitors are transported to a time when Buddhist teachings transformed the religious landscape of the country, resulting in a remarkable array of art dedicated to conveying the Buddha’s message. The exhibition places special emphasis on the exquisite imagery adorning the stupas, religious structures that housed the Buddha’s relics and represented his teachings through symbolic representations and visual narratives.
