Arpita Singh’s ‘This Could Be Us, You, Or Anybody Else’ (Multiple-plate etching, 2007) is a poignant reflection on the impact of globalisation on a modern Indian. It prominently features an aging couple against a backdrop of modern life. Many more such masterpieces by renowned Indian artists embellish the pages of Paper Trails: Modern Indian Works on Paper from the Gaur Collection.
Ranging from M.F. Husain’s ‘Yatra’ (lithograph,1950) to Jyoti Bhatt’s ‘Images of Saurashtra Embroidery’ (etching,1994), India’s eventful and sometimes violent modern history is captured on paper by these masters of art.
