| Horn Please: Narratives in
Contemporary Indian Art |
| Kuntsmuseum Bern, Switzerland |
| September 21, 2007 – January 6,
2008 |
| |
| India has had a strong tradition
of figurative, narrative painting
that goes back several decades. With
the exhibition, Horn Please,
at Kunstmusem Bern, Switzerland,
curators Bernhard Fibicher and Suman
Gopinath attempt to follow the
journey of the narrative over three
decades, from the 1980s to the
present, by tracing certain
‘critical’ moments in Indian art –
moments of both assimilation and
intervention – through which a
particular kind of narrative was
constructed. |
