New Narratives: Contemporary Art from India

Apr 12, 2008 - Jul 31, 2008

This exhibition will be the first in the United States to include only very recent works of art that come directly from the studios of contemporary artists in India, as well as from private collections and galleries in the United States and India. Approximately 50 by fifteen artists have been selected to represent art-making in India today. In addition to paintings and sculptures, a section will be devoted to new media art, including installations and video. The title “New Narratives” refers the continuation of narration as a connective thread that binds contemporary artists to the rich Indian tradition of story-telling. The exhibition will be presented jointly at the Zimmerli Art Museum and the galleries at the Mason Gross School of the Arts.

Admission:
$3.00 per person for adults who are not members of the museum. Entrance to the museum is free at all times for members, all children under 18, and Rutgers University students, faculty, and staff with a valid I.D. In addition, the first Sunday of each month will be free to all.
