Mumbai-based artist Shilpa Gupta (b. 1976) presents a solo exhibition at Galleria Continua in San Gimignano, on view through September 7, 2025. The show features a range of works from her career, including the large-scale embroidered piece *Untitled (Rectangles on flags of the world)* (2021–25), the monumental sculpture *Truth* (2025), and *100 Hand-drawn Maps of Italy* (2007–2023). Through video, installation, performance, and sculpture, Gupta explores themes of censorship, migration, borders, control, and resilience, engaging viewers with multisensory works that question societal norms.
The exhibition matters because it highlights Gupta's ongoing interrogation of borders, truth, and perception—issues of urgent global relevance. By tracing commonalities across countries and cultures, her work challenges viewers to reconsider fixed narratives and embrace shifting perspectives. The show also underscores Galleria Continua's commitment to presenting politically engaged contemporary art in a historic Italian setting.
