Indian Surrealism:
Indian Surrealism
An exhibition of paintings by the contemporary Indian artists
Curated by Professor Sovon Som
Surrealism, unlike the art movement in Europe exists in Indian visual-arts' contemplation from time immemorial. Indian iconography presents a unique panorama of surrealistic images.
Our epics, legends, rituals and the wide variety of folk arts which thrive as a living tradition, showcase the range of imagination of the Indian mind.
The term 'Surrealism' as a common currency now. It is taken for granted as a generative force that offers explorations into the plastic possibilities in the visual range. The proposed exhibition intends to present Surrealism as a human predicament in the Indian sensibility.
