Description

The catalogue of the first solo exhibition of Arpita Singh outside India presents an influential contemporary artist who has consistently put women at the centre of her works.

This richly illustrated catalogue traces Arpita Singh's prolific, more than six-decade-long career. Singh's paintings draw from Bengali folk art and Indian stories, interweaving them with experiences of social upheaval and global conflict. The catalogue features works ranging from large-scale oil paintings to more intimate watercolours and ink drawings in which the artist has explored themes of gender, motherhood, feminine sensuality, and vulnerability, alongside representations of violence and political unrest in India and internationally.
