Shiva Nataraja, the Lord of the Dance. Amazing piece of art from 1000 B.C. This time, I can really say that i enjoy the trip to the AIC since it was art that was so old, and since I'm into the old things I quite enjoyed it. My partner this time was Wen, we had "The God Shiva" to present. I knew a little bit about Shiva and the dance because I had read some of the religion behind it in high school and in a few websites. The first thought that it came to my mind was "Nirvana" NOT with Kurt Cobain, but with the Buddhist religion.
I didn't know the name of the dance that Shiva is doing, but I did knew that it was the dance of destruction, and with the help of the audio tour, which was very helpful, I learned that the guy that was on the floor was a demon.
I wouldn't mind visiting the AIC again to see some of these kind of art again or maybe some medieval art.
