RESPONDING TO THE TIMES
Shrine Empire is presenting, among other works, Baaraan Ijlal's First came the fluttering of wings in my ears. This 2024-acrylic on canvas carries forth the artist's engagement with the ideas of memory, nostalgia and unacknowledged histories. The visuals seem fable-like, and yet there is an urgency within them to document testimonies of loss both from within the artist herself and people around her.
SHOWCASING MASTERS
DAG is presenting previously unseen works by masters-both pre-modern and modern- of Indian art, spanning 18th to 21st centuries, in India Past and Present. There are two works that really stand out. One is Muharram by Sewak Ram, who hailed from the Company school of painting. The other is M.F. Husain's Portrait of a Painter, Surrounded by His Own Images.
