Event Description : "The Silver Streak / Your Happiness Quotient – Creativity for Women Over 50" Dialogue with Eminent Artist Arpana Caur. Followed by Q & A.
The age group 50+ comes with its own set of gender and age related preconceptions and roles. Some good: whether married or not, one lives a life filled with a variety of activities from spending time with old friends to enjoying burgeoning relationships with grandkids and grown up children and enjoying one’s well deserved leisure time. Some bad: one may have been tagged with labels such as ‘over the hill’, or perhaps may not have received the encouragement needed to grow and further ones abilities. It is possible to also experience regret for not having followed creative activities because of familial responsibilities.
This dialogue, presented in association with Katyayani, will bring out the creativity that could not flourish. Be it art, photography, singing, dancing, theatre, poetry or prose, the interactions will help open up hidden talents to others.
In August 2015 artist Arpana Caur will present a painter’s journey of 50 years traversing various subjects from environment to communal violence, spirituality to the passage of Time. Aparna Caur will also show images of her inspirations from the great Indian traditions of sculpture, miniature painting and folk art that she incorporates in contemporary themes and in her non-commercial public art murals in Delhi, Bangalore and Hamburg made over the last 15 years.
About the artist: Born in 1954, Arpana Caur has exhibited her work in India and internationally since 1974. Her work can be seen in Museums of Modern Art in Delhi, Mumbai, Chandigarh, Dusseldorf, Singapore, Bradford, Stockholm, Hiroshima, Peabody Essex Boston, MOCA L.A, Brooklyn, Bharat Bhawan Bhopal & Victoria and Albert Museum London. She was awarded a gold medal in VIth International Triennele 1986 in Delhi. In 1995 the Hiroshima Museum of Modern Art commissioned her for work to be kept in the permanent collection on the occasion of its 50th anniversary. She was also commissioned to make large, non¬commercial murals in public spaces in Bangalore and Hamburg and since 1981 has also made murals in Delhi, Bangalore, Hamburg and Kathmandu.
