Finally spent time today with the amazing conservator Saloni Ghuwalewala who conserved @CP_Museum paintings featured in #ASplendidLand @NatAsianArt. And had excellent conversations last month on future research with CPM team @Dronah2 @ShailkaM, Mayank Gupta, Hansmukh Seth.

[Dipti Khera @KheraDipti]

Without the enormous work of conservators, curators, administrators, @CP_Museum and @NatAsianArt, collaborations with scholars+editors in Udaipur & beyond, this exhibition would not have seen the light of day. Few links to their brilliant work: https://t.co/qIo2hEnNIG

[Dipti Khera @KheraDipti]

If you’re visiting #asplendidland @NatAsianArt on the final weekend, do not miss the @NYUIFA graduate students’ curatorial conversations. Most fun to see the show with all of you last month. Emma Hartman, Ruth Waddington and Salih Cholakkalakath👇🏼

[Dipti Khera @KheraDipti]

And, collaborated with @CP_Museum + @NatAsianArt to explore how audiences may sense the art, politics & ecologies of emotions in an exhibition. See the show in DC or @ClevelandArt (Summer 23). Don’t miss soundscapes by Amit Dutta, @NYUIFA students' https://t.co/atUnZYmAW1

The Indian Express asked me to write about my vision for India at 100. I wrote about a new Constitution and a new preamble that I hope begins with 'We, the people and plants and animals of India ...'

In the past two weeks some amazing friends and colleagues have engaged #ASplendidLand @NatAsianArt. @LokaneetaJinee and @SangayMishra were in there for more than 4 hours at a stretch, over and above the time most art historians can focus. Thank you!

[Jinee Lokaneeta @LokaneetaJinee]

What a privilege to tour the exhibition with the co-curator of the show! #Asplendidland currently showing at the National Museum of Asian Art, DC! Do check it out! Ends this week! It’s an unforgettable experience!
