British South Asian Visual Art Post Cool Britannia: The Body, the Home of Unseen Landscapes

11 May 2021 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm

Categorised: ,


The first in a series of talks from the British Art Network: British South Asian Visual Art Post Cool Britannia with speakers George Chakravarthi, Jai Chuhan and Alia Syed chaired by Raksha Patel. This event looked at the placement of the diasporic body within the traditions of Western European art. Three artists shared their depictions of the ‘other’ through painterly surfaces, deteriorated celluloid film and the photographic male nude, entering pictorial spaces of displacement and ownership, offering alternate narratives through the gaze, mudras and fabric.

The British Art Network: British South Asian Visual Art Post Cool Britannia, was convened by Camberwell College of Arts in partnership with Tate and Paul Mellon Centre for Studies in British Art.

The recording of the event is available to watch below.
