Abstract

The article explores the social, commercial, and political aspects of art in India. The author reflects on the connection between the Indian government and international exhibitions. The dismissal of criminal proceedings and charges of obscenity against painter M. F. Husain are explored. Female artists such as Gigi Scaria, Tushar Joag, and Sharmilla Samanth are considered. Several art exhibitions are discussed including one by artist Ebenezer Sunder Singh at the Pundole Art Gallery and another by artist Chandra Bhattacharjee at Gallerie 88 Kolkata, India.
