After Midnight: Modern and Contemporary Indian Art, 1947/1997

The symposium After Midnight: Modern and Contemporary Indian Art, 1947/1997 was the precursor to the exhibition The Rising Phoenix: A Dialogue Between Modern and Contemporary Indian Art, the first full-scale exploration of Indian artists and their legacy curated by Dr. Arshiya Lokhandwala scheduled to open at the Queens Museum of Art in 2014-2015. The exhibition and symposium both contemplate and compare two critical moments of Indian history. First, the period immediately following Indian independence in 1947, which sees the rise of the Progressive Artists Group, self-declared 'moderns' of Indian art. Second, the exhibition examines the globalization of Indian art that picked up momentum in the 1990s, and saw mid-career Indian artists exhibiting in large-scale international exhibitions, and biennales with 1997 as a critical year, which not only commemorated 50 years of Indian Independence, but also witnessed a significant rise in the number of Indian artist's that year that exhibited all over the world. The symposium, which was held on October 26-27, 2012, examined these two moments in a jump-cut: modern/progressive and global/contemporary. It also drew from the interim space the sustained questions about modernity and globalization viewed from multiple perspectives, as opposed to western narratives, in the regions of Africa, East Asia and Latin America.
