Rubin Museum's Tibetan Shrine Will Move to Brooklyn Museum
Briefly

The Tibetan Buddhist Shrine Room at the Rubin Museum will move to the Brooklyn Museum for six years, highlighting a shift towards traveling exhibitions as the Rubin closes its Chelsea building.
Jorrit Britschgi, director of the Rubin, emphasized the importance of retaining the integrity of the shrine room experience, aiming for tranquility and a unique ambiance for visitors.
With the upcoming closure on October 6, the Rubin Museum plans to sell its historic building and focus on sharing its art through loans and exhibitions elsewhere.
The immersive nature of the Tibetan Buddhist Shrine Room, with elements such as simulated butter lamps and chanted prayers, will be carefully adapted in the Brooklyn Museum's custom space.
