| [rohrpost] tm.salon: Nancy Adajania ueber Indische Medienkunst, 18. Juni |
(English version below) transmediale.salon: Nancy Adajania - Neue Medienkunst in Indien Dienstag, 18. Juni 2002, 20.00 Uhr Podewil, Klosterstr. 68-70, 10179 Berlin Eintritt: EUR 5 / 4 (in Englischer Sprache) Während die neuen Kommunikations- und Bildtechnologien von den Unternehmern der indischen Informatinsökonomie weitgehend angenommen worden sind, haben sich bisher nur wenige indische Künstler mit digitaler Photographie, Videoinstallationen oder dem Web beschäftigt. Ihnen bleibt oftmals nur die Wahl zwischen einer generischen, weithin legitimierten Sprache des Globalen, oder einem lokalen, exotischen Kunstidiom des Lokalen. Nancy Adajania, Kunsttheoretikerin, Filmemacherin und seit zwei Jahren Redakteurin der Zeitschrift Art India, diskutiert diese Fragen an Arbeiten von Künstlern wie Ranbir Kaleka und Satish Sharma, Baiju Parthan, dem Sarai Kollectiv, Nalini Malani, Sonia Khurana, Sharmila Samant, Shilpa Gupta, und Vivan Sundaram.

Indian artists today are poised between the global and the local, in which the global stands for an aspired-to and legitimising international art language, while the local is treated merely as an exotic value addition. Hence the title: the artists as 'free-fliers' in a world of international bursaries and residencies, who could usefully address the 'underpasses' beneath their feet, and examine the cultural production that goes on there. Adajania will be discussing these questions in relation to the photo, video and web-based work of artists like Ranbir Kaleka and Satish Sharma, Baiju Parthan, The Sarai Collective, Nalini Malani, Sonia Khurana, Sharmila Samant, Shilpa Gupta, and Vivan Sundaram. Nancy Adajania is an art theorist and film-maker, based in Bombay. She has been Editor of the arts journal, Art India, since March 2000. In this capacity, she has accentuated the importance of public art and new media art for the contemporary art situation, emphasising the intimate connections between the aesthetic and the political, the private artist-self and the public sphere. Her specific area of interest is the emergence of what she describes as a 'new folkloric imagination': a variegated mode of resistance, phrased across an array of cultural practices including installation, cinema, photography and street theatre. http://www.artindia.co.in ---------------------------------------------- Preview / Vorschau: transmediale salon: Joe Davis (USA): Undiscovered Genomes Mittwoch, 3.
