J.& E. Portheim Foundation’s Museum of Cultural Anthropology
The special exhibition “Following the Footsteps of the Gods – Rituals and Religious Aesthetics in Orissa” at the J.& E. Portheim Foundation’s Museum of Cultural Anthropology is a key element of the dialogue with the public that the SFB 619 aspires in the scope of the conference. When we acknowledge that, even though other cultures’ rituals appear to be different, they do share the common aspect of creating meaning and providing order in human societies in their very core, we create the basis for a peaceful dialogue between the cultures.
