About The Event
Destination India: Foreign Artists in India, 1857–1947 Destination India focuses on foreign artists who travelled to India from across the world— Germany, Holland, Denmark, France, America, Japan, besides Britain—between the Uprising of 1857 and Independence in 1947 as examples of a late phase of Orientalist art. With a refreshing and essential turn in the representation of India, the exhibition delves into a less-explored but equally compelling period: the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries not merely to retrace the steps of those who came before but to explore the intricate perspectives of a new generation of artists who found different nuances and beauty in the Indian subcontinent.
On view: 13 July 2024 to 24 August 2024 at DAG, 22A Janpath Road, Windsor Place, New Delhi.
