From Far Away Uncle Moon Calls
The Mead Gallery presents a major exhibition by one of India’s foremost contemporary artists, Subodh Gupta. Working across painting, sculpture and installation, in Gupta’s hands objects such as tiffin boxes, cooking utensils and milk pails are used to reflect on personal and universal concerns. The exhibition title is taken from the English translation of Chanda Mama door ke, the title given to a huge suspended mass of cooking pots, patinated by age and use, which form the exhibition’s dramatic centrepiece. Find out more about the ‘Subodh Gupta’ exhibition from the Mead Gallery website.
