Event Description : Shrine Empire Gallery presents 'The Edge' group art show curated by Yashodhara Dalmia
To mark the tenth year of Shrine Empire, we have planned a series of curated exhibitions and panel discussions. The programming, spread all year round, will identify landmark art historical impulses and junctures that have come to define the last decade (2008 - 2018). We are excited to kick start our anniversary year with 'The Edge', curated by Yashodhara Dalmia, which tries to build a South Asia narrative for art in the region.
The varied dimensions of existence in contemporary times and the fractured, dislocated and divided states of being form the core motif of this exhibition. It is the dystopic conditions of the present at social and personal levels which are a matter of concern and reflection in this show. Can there be a way out of these conundrums which entail a nexus of power and corruption and lead to endgames? The artists address themselves to these essential questions as they circuit the off limits of man- made disasters.
The show titled The Edge and curated by art historian Yashodhara Dalmia highlights the extraordinary territories that have to be mapped between religions, communities and sects to retain a semblance of humanity. The limits of ordinary day to day existence which have reached a climactic edge are being stretched further. The boundaries as they become hardened and tensile and as they reach excessive and extreme limits, also reflect the seething situation of the present.
The exhibition will forefront the chasms that continue to widen for the ‘other’ from those who belong to minority religions, the lower castes or the marginalised poor. The shadows and cesspools that trail their lives and create their nightmares form the undercurrents of this show. In its essence the artists will reflect the real and imaginary boundaries which exist in the sub-continent and reflect the divisions within people themselves
