    'Due Gratitude: Invisible becomes Visible'
    by Komal Pande, Deputy Curator, National Museum, New Delhi.

    on 10th August 2024 at 5.00 pm

    in conjunction with the ongoing exhibition
    NANDALAL BOSE (1882-1966) HARIPURA PANELS

    When we begin to see the element of 'life' in objects of history, the narrative of the social discourse precedes the material obsession. Shifting the focus from a conventional reading of art in a museum space, this lecture will explore the often-overlooked and dismissed portrayal of the concept and depiction of 'labour' in the classical Indian art.
    The visual presentation will include a curated tableau of the portrayal of the artists & craftsmen, musicians & dancers, garland & fly whisk bearers, farmers & gardeners and many others that have found their presence in art, however, their representation in discourse remains negligible. Interestingly, many of these professions, scenes and scenarios are also seen composed in the Haripura posters of 1930s, painted by Nandalal Bose, depicting - musicians, carpenters, smiths etc. Emphasising on the 'presence of people' as depicted in the Indian Art, the lecture will engage with a select range of visuals dating from c. 2500 BCE to 19th Century, present in the National Museum, New Delhi collection. The lecture will also include the contribution of the commoners in discovering and safeguarding the heritage and history of our county. The presentation will conclude with highlighting the emergence of the profound philosophical leanings that have emanated from the life, toil, skill, knowledge and wisdom of the labouring bodies that have flagged the alternate devotion/liberation practices, steering social emancipation movement in India. Thus, the talk shall be a humble attempt to pay the long pending, 'due gratitude'!

    Tour of Trees
    celebrating, 'World Environment Day', 2023
    by Mr. B. S. Chandrashekar
    Scientist-E, Institute of Wood Science & Technology (IWST) Bengaluru
    Trees are a part of India's rich cultural heritage and traditions from time immemorial. Many species which we commonly see in our surroundings have been venerated, worshipped, protected, admired and adored for thousands of years. In the current age where trees are planted for either economic considerations or ornamental purposes, we take a look at them from the perspective of their association with history and culture.
    on Saturday, 10th June 2023 at 4.30 pm
    Entry free for the event.
    Want to know which trees and plants grow in NGMA Bengaluru premises!
    NGMA Bengaluru is happy to announce the ar.bo.re.tum which also reminds the ideology of Gandhi who himself was a deep ecologist and immense value of nature, is also delighted to conduct Tree walk in the premises to help people to familiarise with the flora and fauna, field methods and data collection. These kinds of programs help in sensitizing the people to the issues of sustainability and environmental protection, resulting in cleaner and greener habits that will be resulting in an eco-friendly society.
    This initiation is scheduled once every month.

    L. N. Tallur (b.1971) received a BFA in Painting from Chamarajendra Academy of Visual Arts (1996), a MFA in Museology from Maharaja Sayajirao University (1998), and a MA in Contemporary Fine Art Practice from Leeds Metropolitan University (2002).

    Tallur uses sculpture, wall pieces, interactive work, and site-specific installations to expose the absurdities of everyday life and the anxieties that characterize contemporary society. His work incorporates handmade craftsmanship, found objects, organic and industrial material; symbols of developing India, oftentimes creating a correlation between traditional and contemporary customs. The New York Times eloquently described the artist�s work: �each of his pieces is like a miniature curiosity cabinet, hand-assembled down to the smallest detail and packed with charmed and puzzling surprises.�

    Tallur�s impressive sculptures and installations have been exhibited internationally, including at solo exhibitions in Germany, South Korea, India, China, and the United States. He recently had a major survey exhibition at the Grounds for Sculpture in New Jersey, United States, in 2020 entitled Interference Fringe. Selected group exhibitions include The Idea of the Acrobat, Bikaner House, New Delhi (2020); The Sculpture Park at Madhavendra Palace (2018, 2017); India and the World: History in Nine Stories, CSMVS Museum, Mumbai and National Museum, New Delhi (2017); Constructs/Constructions, Kiran Nadar Museum of Art, New Delhi (2015), After Midnight: Indian Modernism to Contemporary India 1947/1997, Queens Museum, New York (2015); The 7th Asia Pacific Triennial of Contemporary Art (APT7), Queensland Art Gallery, Gallery of Modern Art, Brisbane, Australia (2012); Critical Mass: Contemporary Art from India, Tel Aviv Museum of Art, Israel (2011); Meditation: Asian Art Biennial, National Taiwan Museum, Taiwan (2011); The Empire Strikes Back: Indian Art Today, Saatchi Gallery, UK (2010) and La Route de la Soir, Tri Postal, France (2010).
