Published in conjunction with the exhibition "Nalini Malani" at the Irish Museum of Modern Art from July 11 to October 14, 2007. From back panel: "Malani's work is influenced by her experiences as a refugee of the Partition of India. She places inherited iconographies and cherished cultural stereotypes under pressure. Her point of view is unwaveringly urban and internationalist, and unsparing in its condemnation of a cynical nationalism that exploits the beliefs of the masses. Hers is an art of excess, going beyond the boundaries of legitimized narrative, exceeding the conventional and initiating dialogue." Heavy and oversized items may require additional shipping.
