India, Dec. 4 -- Drawing from the collection of the Avtar Foundation for the Arts (AFTA), this exhibition explores a sprawling range of South Asian art across two centuries. Curator Shruti Parthasarathy brings out fascinating facets and interpretations of the 'body'. From Rajput miniatures, contemporised ritual tantra, and folk art to 19th-century Company paintings, early-mid 20th-century works by key Shantiniketan artist-teachers, and modernists like F.N. Souza, Arpita Singh, Manjit Bawa, Sudhir Patwardhan, Krishna Reddy, Atul Dodiya, and Anish Kapoor - the body is the muse.
