About
'Into View' focuses on photography and video works by five artists who have established prominent international careers; the late, celebrated Indian modernist Nasreen Mohamedi; Malaysian multidisciplinary artist Simryn Gill; Iranian photographer Shadi Ghadirian; Indian photomedia artist Pushpamala N; and Neha Choksi who works between the USA and India. These works, which span the late 1950s – 2000s, show the different ways that artists choose to reveal the world through the lens, and the power of the camera as an instrument to build narratives, create identities and reflect on society and culture.
