Inside a historic exhibition bringing Indian art to Saint Petersburg, Russia
The State Hermitage Museum in Saint Petersburg, Russia, is hosting 'Sediments of Becoming: Fossilised Present, Summoned Pasts,' the first dedicated contemporary Indian art exhibition in its 260-year history. Co-curated by Marina Schulz and New Delhi-based gallerist Tunty Chauhan, and produced with Threshold Art Gallery, the show features eleven Indian artists—including Afrah Shafiq, Manjunath Kamath, Ravinder Reddy, and Sumakshi Singh—with works spanning painting, sculpture, installation, and performance, many created specifically for the exhibition.
