The Center for Burma Studies welcomes professor Ian Holliday, vice-president and pro-vice-chancellor (Teaching and Learning) at the University of Hong Kong, and owner of the Thukhuma art collection. He generously donated 29 paintings made by contemporary artists from Myanmar to the Burma Art Collection, which is housed at NIU.
