The American Council For Southern Asian Art (ACSAA) will hold its biennial meeting at the University of Minnesota September 22-25. Some 80 scholars from India, Europe, Japan and Southeast Asia will join American scholars presenting state of the field papers. It is particularly apt that the fifteenth ACSAA conference should be held at Minnesota: the idea for these conferences was born at the University, and the first conference held here. Support for the conference has come from the Asian Cultural Council (New York), the Hazen-Polsky Foundation, and the Institute for Global Studies at the University of Minnesota, to say nothing of a great deal of very good-natured assistance from the staff of the Art History Department.
