GUY DILL: NOMAD is now on view at the Laguna Art Museum. This exhibition contains 16 never-before-seen sculptures by acclaimed California sculptor Guy Dill.

This is the WORLD OF THE TERRACOTTA WARRIORS: NEW ARCHAEOLOGICAL DISCOVERIES IN SHAANXI IN THE 21ST CENTURY. The new Bowers Museum exhibition contains more than 115 newly uncovered treasures including Terracotta Warriors, chariot regalia, jade and gold adornments, bronze vessels and more discovered in Shaanxi, China.
These new discoveries on display in Santa Ana augment what is currently known about the first emperor of China Qin Shi Huang, credited with unifying China and initiating the initial construction of the Great Wall of China.
The bowers.org website has visitor and ticket information.
Oh! by the way, today, from 11am until noon, we can meet jewelry designer Chumki De Sarkar at the Bowers to learn about the artistry and sustainability of terracotta jewelry, considered one of the oldest forms of adornment in the world. Again, details are on the bowers.org website.
So, let’s make this a “new discoveries” Saturday. Gayle Anderson, KTLA 5 News.
