This historic exhibition based on the association twenty-seven Indian artists had with art institutions, museums and art movements in Paris throws light on France as a cradle of modernism and what Indian artists gained from this relationship. From DAG website: What we know considerably less ofand this is ironicis the very large number of artists from India who have in greater or smaller measure been influenced by Paris and its derivative movements. Over the years, we have gained peripheral knowledge of various Indian artists who have gone to France to study art, but we know considerably less of how her artists have influenced their work. Certainly, we have never viewed them as a group who might have shared similar experiences, whether at an institution of art education, or her wonderful museums and galleries. That many of them were students at a time when Paris probably had the largest concentration of well-known artists must have impacted their perspective and understanding of their own art in ways beyond measure. Art is an individual pursuit and response, but their collective experience could add to our own understanding of their practice.
