We weren't able to get to Canberra today for the ANU Japan Institute symposium OBJECTively - Connecting Australia and Japan: objects, cultural stories, people.
However, online, we have just enjoyed a similar symposium lecture from 2012 by Louise Allison Cort.
March 15, 2012, Louise Allison Cort, Curator for Ceramics, Freer Gallery of Art and Arthur M. Sackler Gallery, Smithsonian Institution, Washington D.C. gives her lecture "Fine autumnal tones": Charles Lang Freer's Collecting of Asian Ceramics ( click the lecture title to watch video ) for the symposium The Dragon and the Chrysanthemum : Collecting Chinese and Japanese Art in America organized by the Center for the History of Collecting at The Frick Collection, March 15-16, 2012.
from the lecture : Charles Lang Freer in 1903 looks at his 'Venus
Rising from the Sea' by Charles McNeill Whistler (c.1869-1870)
