Another India: Explorations and Expressions of Indigenous South Asia

Another India

£10.00

Description

FOR SUPPLY IN THE UK ONLY

Over one hundred artefacts, paintings and photographs from the collections of MAA, many of which have never been exhibited before, will be complemented by artworks by contemporary artists from the communities represented, commissioned with support from the Art Fund.
Focusing on communities known variously as Indigenous, ‘Tribal’ or Adivasi (literally ‘original inhabitants), the exhibition will showcase extraordinary and fascinating objects, many of which tell equally intriguing stories. From the Nagas and other peoples in the hills of Northeast India to the Gonds, Todas and Chenchus of the South and the Santhals and Bhils in the East and West of the country, the displays will present strikingly diverse stories of India, collecting, colonialism and British involvement in the subcontinent. Written by Mark Elliott; Foreward by Nicholas Thomas; Afterward by Ruby Hembrom

Exhibition Catalogue: 136pp; Full Colour; ISBN 978-0-947595-24-1
