    India’s leading private art gallery, DAG, in association with the Punjab Lalit Kala Akademi, Chandigarh, come together to present The Printed Picture: Four Centuries of Indian Printmaking. Curated by artist and scholar, Dr. Paula Sengupta, the exhibition marks the first-ever comprehensive survey of its kind in the country. Charting the foundation of printmaking in India, when visiting Portuguese Jesuits had brought a printing press to Goa, the exhibition showcases the evolution of the medium in the subcontinent over the following centuries before attainting its contemporary state. The exhibition will be on display in Chandigarh from September 17, 2018 – October 16, 2018.

    Visitors will embark on an engaging chronological narrative which examines the impact of history, religion, culture and the development of newer printing techniques on the medium. The exhibition begins by exploring printmaking’s role in the British colonial enterprise, and subsequently to its rapid success in the vernacular printing industry. It looks at the entry of the Indian bazaar-print, both in the hands of the artisan and the art-school trained artist, the affects of modernism on printmaking’s themes and aesthetics, and the subsequent expansion of the printmaking practice to various regional art centers across the country.

    The Printed Picture: Four Centuries of Indian Printmaking will present over one hundred artworks by modern Indian artist-printmakers.

    ABOUT DAG

    DAG was established as a private art gallery in 1993 in New Delhi. Over the past 25 years, DAG has carved a reputation for the quality of its collection of artworks that represent the expanse of Indian art practice from theseventeenth century onwards. DAG’s extensive collection over the past two decades charts a historic continuum, from the early works of academic artists trained in Bengal and Bombay, to modernists from Baroda, Delhi and beyond. In an effort to take Indian modernism to a wider audience, DAG had opened gallery spaces in the historic Kala Ghoda, Mumbai in 2014, and the iconic Fuller Building in Manhattan, New York in 2015. DAG’s collection includes artworks by some of India’s most celebrated artists, including Raja Ravi Varma, Amrita Sher-Gil, M.F. Husain, S.H. Raza, Tyeb Mehta, F.N. Souza, Ram Kumar, Avinash Chandra and Chittaprosad. DAG also participates in international fairs such as Art Basel Hong Kong, Art Dubai, Art Stage Singapore, India Art Fair and Masterpiece London. The gallery consistently hosts art outreach programmes to schools, colleges and corporates, which includes the pioneering use of tactile aids that make art accessible to the visually impaired.
