SUMMARY:Slow Is The New Urgent
DESCRIPTION:Kiran Nadar Museum of Art (KNMA) is thrilled to announce a transformative art installation housed in the KNMA Art Passage\, the skybridge connecting Nexus Select CITYWALK and DLF South Court Mall – ‘Slow Is The New Urgent’\, curated by Avik Debdas. The location of the exhibition adheres to KNMA’s mission of integrating meaningful artistic experiences into everyday public spaces.A colorful trail of turtles sets the pace\, inviting visitors through an immersive passage of artistic contemplation. \nFeaturing eleven contemporary artists—Anshu Jakhar\, C.K. Rajan\, Hifzul Kabeer\, K.M. Madhusudanan\, Manveer Singh\, Mohd. Intiyaz\, Pallavi Singh\, Schön Mendes\, Slipa Sheeja\, Sonam Chaturvedi\, and Tahsin Akhtar— an environment that gradually shifts from digital and commercial sensory stimulation quiet introspection\, encouraging slow looking. The visitor then crosses a sanctuary of muted birds\, televisions that blare a chorus of toxicity\, rivers dyed in synthetic excess\, and many other such markers of the rampant consumerism that litter the wider world. The ‘thinking passage’ also goes on to bring to the forefront the omnipresent digital surveillance that pervades \nmodern life. The works illuminate how our every choice\, pause\, and click is methodically recorded\, monetized\, and fed back into algorithms that curate our next impulse. The exhibition confronts visitors with the unsettling reality that our desires are increasingly engineered rather than authentic—optimized\, and resold to us through the manipulative language of urgency\, transforming even our attention itself into a marketable commodity. \nThis exhibition is an extension of KNMA’s ongoing commitment to democratizing art. By establishing this thoughtful corridor in one of Delhi’s busiest commercial centers\, the museum invites diverse audiences to experience how art can create moments of pause within our increasingly urgent world. Each segment of the passage encourages visitors to engage with what literary scholar Arden Reed describes as art that ” waits mutely—patiently—for us to animate them.

SUMMARY:KNMA | Caravaggio Comes to India
DESCRIPTION:The Cultural Centre of the Italian Embassy\, in partnership with The Kiran Nadar \nMuseum of Art\, proudly announces the historic arrival of Caravaggio’s Mary Magdalene in Ecstasy in Delhi on the occasion of the visit of Italian Deputy Prime Minister Antonio T ajani and Minister for University and Research Anna Maria Bernini. “It’s the first time of a Caravaggio painting in India. This landmark exhibition oﬀers a rare opportunity to \nexperience the mastery of one of the Baroque era’s most influential artists. Caravaggio upended the traditional canons of his time\, introducing in his works models from real life and a cinematic lighting”\, commented the Italian Ambassador Antonio Bartoli. \nMichelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio (1571-1610)\, renowned for his revolutionary use of light and shadow\, transformed the visual language of Baroque art with his emotive realism and masterful technique. Mary \nMagdalene in Ecstasy\, painted around 1606 while the artist was in exile after being charged with murder\, is a poignant depiction of spiritual transcendence\, exemplifying his signature chiaroscuro. This technique\, which \nheightened the emotional and physical presence of his subjects\, redefined the portrayal of the human form\, lending it an unprecedented sensorial depth. Despite his tumultuous life\, Caravaggio’s radical approach \nprofoundly influenced Flemish artists and subsequent artistic movements\, shaping the trajectory of European art in ways that continue to resonate today. \nFollowing the unveiling of the painting at the Italian Cultural Center in the presence of the Deputy Prime Minister\, the exhibition will be opened to the public at KNMA Saket from April 17 to May 18\, 2025. \nThe project is part of an exclusive showcase dedicated to Caravaggio’s artistic legacy and its enduring impact on global art history. It will be supported by the screening of a series of documentaries and a VR experience offering \nvisitors a deeper and more immersive engagement with Caravaggio’s world. Alongside the masterpiece\, the show \nwill feature a curated selection of discussions\, and immersive educational programs aimed at deepening the understanding of Caravaggio’s artistic contributions. \nKiran Nadar\, Founder & Chairperson\, KNMA\, said\, “Well aligned with KNMA’s mission to facilitate cross-cultural dialogue and expand access to transformative artistic experiences\, this project oﬀers a rare opportunity to our local audiences in particular\, to view a Carravaggio painting\, and encounter an artistic lineage that has fascinated generations of Indian artists. The arrival of ‘Mary Magdalene in Ecstasy’ marks a significant \nmoment in India’s engagement with Classical European Art\, drawing our attention to painterly feats in easel painting in oil\, the use of a dramatic chiaroscuro and mysterious lighting in their portraiture and narrative \npaintings. “Mary Magdalene in Ecstasy was believed to be lost for centuries\, its whereabouts unknown following \nCaravaggio’s tumultuous final years. In 2014\, the painting resurfaced and was subsequently authenticated as an original masterpiece by a team of leading art historians\, including renowned Italian scholar Mina Gregori. Its \nrediscovery was a groundbreaking moment in the art world\, offering fresh insight into Caravaggio’s later works.

SUMMARY:Re-Figuring
DESCRIPTION:Re-Figuring is a thought-provoking group exhibition that brings together recent works by ten contemporary visual artists working across painting\, sculpture\, graphic drawing\, video\, and photography. The exhibition interrogates the evolving role of the figure in contemporary art\, treating it not as static representation but as a dynamic site of action\, memory\, and resistance. Exploring intersections of the body with ecology\, surveillance\, capitalist alienation\, and institutional control\, the exhibition critiques how environmental and technological matrices shape figuration in both visual and conceptual terms. It invites viewers to engage with figuration as a space of socio-political inquiry and affective resonance.
