Saloni Mathur on The Strange Sculptures of Rina Banerjee
UCLA Professor of Art History Saloni Mathur will lead a gallery discussion of artist Rina Banerjee’s strange and complex sculptural assemblages. Simultaneously ephemeral, exotic, beautiful, and menacing, these “unnatural” organic forms evoke history and myth, yet remain elusive. By encouraging visual and experiential engagement with key works in the exhibition, Professor Mathur will invite visitors to consider the intricate relationships between material, technique, and narrative in Banerjee’s artistic practice.
This event is co-presented by the Fowler Museum at UCLA and the UCLA Center for India and South Asian Studies (CISA).
