Asia House presents a half-day panel discussion
using the exhibition
Beyond the Page as a point of departure for exploring South Asian
miniature practice and its relation to today's artists, curators,
arts
administrators, film-makers and others working in the arts world.
Curator Hammad Nasar will introduce the ideas behind the exhibition,
and share the questions its realisation has raised. Anna Sloan,
US-based writer, curator and art historian, will investigate the
"space"
of the historical miniature in relation to contemporary artistic
practice.
Nicole Wolf, Lecturer in Visual Cultures at Goldsmiths' College,
will be
in conversation with film-maker Puja Kaul around ideas of how the
formal
structures of miniature painting offer a model for how to think
of history
differently. Three short-films about or connected to the miniature
will also
inform the panel discussion at the end, which will be joined by
film-maker
Nurjahan Akhlaq.
Members’ Priority Booking Period to 1 November then open to
the public.
Asia House Members and concs £4, Non-members £7
