Join us for a conversation exploring the exhibition's major themes: Doris Duke's vision as a collector, her legacy in the display and understanding of Islamic art - particularly the establishment of the artist-in-residence program at Shangri La for contemporary artists - and the unique architecture and design of the Shangri La estate.

The exhibition Doris Duke's Shangri La: Architecture, Landscape and Islamic Art was organized by The Doris Duke Foundation for Islamic Art, which is also providing generous support for its presentation at UMMA and national tour. Additional lead support for UMMA's installation is provided by the University of Michigan Health System and the University of Michigan Office of the President. Other generous support is provided by the Monroe-Brown Foundation Discretionary Fund for Outreach to the State of Michigan, the Katherine Tuck Enrichment Fund, and the University of Michigan Center for South Asian Studies, CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund, Department of the History of Art, Institute for Research on Women & Gender, Institute for the Humanities, Islamic Studies Program, and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design.
