Revisiting Beauty
Revisiting Beauty
Is Beauty a 鈥榖ad鈥 word in the age of cutting-edge, angst ridden art?
For this exhibition we invited ten contemporary artists whose practice is rooted in the miniature tradition of painting. They were asked to critically examine the aesthetics of our time from their own individual standpoints.
Keeping in view their concerns and ideologies, we posited the question, is the concept of beauty consciously/subconsciously an important ingredient in the execution of their artwork? Does it decide the imagery and the formal choices they make?
Aisha Abid Hussain, Anindita Bhattacharya, Desmond Lazaro, Gulam M Sheikh, Manisha Gera Baswani, Manjunath Kamath, Nilima Sheikh , V Ramesh, Wardha Shabbir, F. Zahra Hassan
