EXHIBITION
“Let’s proceed in parts” Art-Poetry Show by Parul Gupta 
 Tribute to Rubén Darío 
As part of ' LITERATURE AND THINKING' series. 

Synopsis: Ruben Dario, a Nicaraguan poet, is said to have commenced modernism in Latin American Literature with his most renowned work Azul (Blue) towards the end of nineteenth century. His poem – “vamos por partes (Let’s proceed in parts)” philosophizes the notions of time, movement and rupture, which artist Parul Gupta has taken as sets of prompts to build the exhibition around. Ms. Gupta’s juxtaposition is also prompted by the prologue on the poet by Octavio Paz from the “Selected Poems by Ruben Dario” (1965), where he described the poet: “The modernist (Ruben Dario) accomplished more than the job of the restoration. (For him) The world, the universe, is the system of correspondences under the rule of rhythm. 
Everything connects, everything rhymes. Every form of nature has something to say to other. The poet is not the maker of the rhythm but its transmitter. Analogy is the highest expression of the imagination.” The exhibition stems from these prompts as a means to create a space accentuating the oscillation of eternal trap of time, which manifests the amalgamation of cosmic diversity.

About the artist: Parul Gupta (b. 1980), works around the subject of architectural spaces by countering the question of perception, of how a particular place/ space informs the way we see. How a spatial intervention changes our perception of each individual space, as well our perception of ourselves in that space. After graduating from Nottingham Trent University in 2011, she has been showing in galleries and project spaces regularly. She was part of Sarai Reader 09, 2012-13 at Devi Art Foundation, curated by Raqs Media Collective and recently she is covered by Marg Magazine in the issue “In Focus: Abstraction” covering works by three generation of abstractionists, conceptualized by Geeta Kapur and Jyotindra Jain
