WELCOME FROM THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE

SKINDER HUNDAL

Greetings from New Art Exchange as we embrace the New Year in an ever-changing artistic landscape... After an inspiring year of cutting edge contemporary visual art, world class artists, and the biggest art show in Britain, we leap headlong into 2011 with an exhibition led by one of photography’s vanguards - Raghu Rai. A critically-lauded Magnum photographer and propagator of the CartierBresson style, Rai’s practice ostensibly focuses on India and its many hues, as we see it in a raw, luminous and beautiful light through Invocation to India. Alongside the exhibition we have a strong programme of events, talks and educational workshops. Much to be savoured for arts and photography enthusiasts, whilst for those of you interested in Indian culture, there’s a veritable feast of activity taking place this Easter. Other highlights include: An Evening with rising dance star - Aakash Odedra, find out about Invocation to India through In Conversation with Niru Ratnam and Saleem Arif Quadri, a Circle of Sound from Sarod maestro Soumik Datta, and our dazzling film season that will take you to India and back musically, spiritually, magically and scenically! We wish you all the best for the New Year, and look forward to seeing you at New Art Exchange in 2011. Skinder Hundal Chief Executive, New Art Exchange

NEW ART EXCHANGE IN ASSOCIATION WITH AICON GALLERY PRESENT

RAGHU RAI’S INVOCATION TO INDIA CURATED BY SALEEM ARIF QUADRI MBE EXHIBITION DATES 29 JANUARY - 30 APRIL 2011 PRIVATE VIEW FRIDAY 28 JANUARY, 6 - 9PM AS PART OF FORMAT INTERNATIONAL PHOTOGRAPHY FESTIVAL 2011


P4 / P5 NAE

New Art Exchange is delighted to present an exhibition of works by world renowned Magnum photographer Raghu Rai, for the first time in a public gallery in the UK, including new work from 2010. Rai’s work proclaims the rich diversity of contemporary India, with its juxtapositions of ancient and modern, where the people are the landscape. He photographs an India teeming with colour, history, beauty and brilliance whilst uncovering a continent’s domestic rituals with these striking images of Indian street life, festivals and the changing seasons.

“Over the centuries, so much has melded into India that it’s not really one country, and it’s not one culture. It is crowded with crosscurrents of many religions, beliefs, cultures and their practices that may appear incongruous. But India keeps alive the inner spirit of her own civilisation with all its contradictions. Here, several centuries have learnt to live side by side at the same time. And a good photograph is a lasting witness to that, as photography is a history of our times: being a multi-lingual, multi- cultured and multi- religious society, the images must speak these complexities through a multi-layered experience.” - Raghu Rai


Rai, who was born in present-day Pakistan in 1942, came to India during Partition and has been witness to some of the most significant events in his country’s recent history. He was one of the first photographers on the scene after the 1984 Bhopal industrial disaster and has produced acclaimed documentary series on Mother Teresa, the Dalai Lama and the late Indian Prime Minister Indira Gandhi.

In 1977 Henri Cartier-Bresson saw his work at an exhibition in Paris, and recommended him to become a member of Magnum Photo Agency. Since then Rai has taken India as his canvas and produced works that he simply describes as slicing out spaces and moments in front of him. Rai has taken the documentary form associated with Cartier-Bresson and the Magnum tradition and pushed it in a way that responds to the specificities of India. He captures the ways in which the past co-exists with the present in India, and on a more subtle level, the visual rhymes and congruities between the different components in his works. His works attest to a multi-layered reality, where people, objects, animals and buildings jostle with each other, where people’s own personal space is overlaid and invaded by each other’s space.


P6 / P7 NAE

Other major books include projects on the Taj Mahal, Tibet, Sikhs, Dreams of India, Tibet and his recent book on Indian Musicians (2010). A regular contributor to a huge range of international journals and British broadsheets, from ‘90 to ‘97 Rai judged the World Press Photo Awards. With nearly 50 years of excellence and an extraordinary contribution to world photography and Indian photography in particular, in honour of his extensive photographic oeuvre and recognition of his commitment to excellence, in 1971 Rai was awarded one of India’s highest civilian accolades - the Padma Shri.

Thursday 24 February, 7.30pm

AN EVENING WITH AAKASH ODEDRA In this special performance, rising Kathak star Aakash Odedra will perform three special dance pieces, as well as screen a special film collaboration with John Marc Gowans (courtesy: Akademi). Aakash and John Marc come together to capture Aakash’s unique blend of Kathak through a video lens. They manipulate rhythmic time cycles to give a larger than life representation of Indian classical dance in a contemporary context. (Running time: approximately 20 minutes) Barse Baderia Choreographed by Smt Kumudini Lakhia Based on Meerabai’s famous poetry, this piece describes the joy of the arrival of the Monsoons as a simile to the arrival of Lord Krishna. Meera’s dedication to her Lord came to symbolize ‘devotion’; transforming her grief into a passionate spiritual yearning that inspired her countless songs, drenched with eroticism and separation.

Dhamaar Choreographed by Kumudini Lakhia The dhamaar takes its name from the taal (rhythm) of 14 beats and is usually performed in a mood of obeisance. The performer paints abstract dance with an emotional quality by syncopating body movements with musicality, bringing to life the joy and energy of the ‘Pakhwaj-based taal’ and complexities of rhythm. Mohe Apne Hi Rang Mena Choreographed by Aakash Odedra Sufi Kathak is a unique dance form that expatiates the audience by rekindling this ancient mystical form of dance and traditional music. Popularly referred to as the ‘Dance of Ecstasy’; it is a somewhat sensual performance that combines 600 year old poetic compositions with classical Indian dance. When the human dancer enacts this, he or she completely surrenders to God, as Sufism is a way to reach ‘the Almighty’. Admission: £8 (£6 concessions)

CIRCLE OF SOUND: SOUMIK DATTA

Saturday 18 February, from 6pm

BIJLI - LIGHT NIGHT Kathak and Contemporary dancer, Hanna Mannila, will grace various venues and spaces in the city appearing and disappearing as she majestically moves in silent wonder as a nonstatic live art light installation. Hanna will dance at New Art Exchange between 6pm - 6.30pm after which she will dance through other city spaces throughout Light Night 2011. Admission: Free

Soumik Datta is one of the most acclaimed Sarod players in the world today. His playing takes you on an exploration of time: from slow grandeur to fast, ecstatic rhythms. Having collaborated with Beyonce, Talvin Singh, Akram Khan and Bill Bailey, Soumik is ‘a must for those who find Indian music intimidating’ (Songlines Magazine). Circle of Sound is an audio / visual show featuring avant garde electric Sarod and Drums in a revolutionary concert experience, featuring British Sarod maestro Soumik Datta and pioneering drummer Bernhard Schimpelsberger aka Taalis. “Your mind wanders when you improvise. You see things, visit places, revisit a memory: a girl on a cycle, the creak of a floorboard, the shape of a temple dome, windows like orange square eyes on the face of a skyscraper, the skyline of a city, the bend of a dancer, the calm breath of traffic, the regularity of escalators, the faces in a crowd. These when combined make up your circle your circle of sound.” Admission: £8 (£6 concessions)

FILM PROGRAMME

Thursday 17 February, 7pm

Street Magic and Hill Stations of India - Double bill Thursday 10 February, 7pm

India’s Forgotten Women Director: Michael Lawson This searing documentary looks at exploitation and oppression in the world’s largest democracy. Filmed in the towns and villages in and around Hyderabad, Bengalaru, Belgaum and Mumbai, it portrays comprehensive claims of caste oppression, and in some cases outright persecution. After sixty years of Independence and India’s enormous economic growth, surprisingly little has changed for women on the lowest rung of the caste ladder. In a society where freedom, democracy and wealth are so highly prized, why is it that Dalit women are still so shockingly abused, exploited and oppressed? Followed by a Q&A session with speakers: Ananya Jahanara Kabir (University of Leeds), Anjali Guptara (Presenter of India’s Forgotten Women) and Carol Jones (Nottingham Trent University). Chaired by Lisa Mooney Smith (NAE Board Trustee) Admission: £3 (£2 concessions)

A double bill of documentary films shot in India. In their ‘Magic and Mystery Tour’ Superstar American magicians Penn and Teller went in search of the Jadugars of India - street magicians who perform in much the same way they have for centuries. Their attempts to show control over a chaotic world - even over life and death result in some of the most technically beautiful and seriously bloody illusions in the world. Shot ten years later, the award-winning ‘Indian Hill Railways: Nilgiri Mountain Railways’ shows how the World’s Biggest Employer, Indian Railways, attempts to master the vagaries of weather and ancient rolling stock on a daily basis to keep the railways running. A beautiful and evocative portrait of a Hill Railway and Station “Snooty” Ooty, it serves, the film is about devotion to duty and the upkeep of a tradition as important to India, if not as ancient, as the traditions the magicians try to keep. Both films explore the relationship between Colonial India and modern India. Director Hugo Smith who has worked extensively in India since the early 1990s will be available for Q&A about the films after the screening. Admission: £3 (£2 concessions)

Tuesday 19 April, 6.45pm

Raga Unveiled - India’s Voice Director: Gita Desai This extraordinary documentary-film looks at the history and essence of North Indian classical music. Exploring the artistry and origins of Indian ‘Ragas’, it features music icons including Ravi Shankar, Ustad Bismillah Khan, Pandit Birju Maharaj, Zakir Hussain, Shiv Kumar Sharma, Shubha Mudgal and many more. The screening will be followed by a special Q&A by Gita Desai. A Darbar Festival 2011 event. Admission: £3 (£2 concessions)


ARTIST IN RESIDENCE

COMING SOON

Blackfeather

The Zone

Agam - in the Hindi language is translated as “unattainable... inaccessible... incomprehensible”

Basel Abbas and Ruanne Abou-Rahmme

This residency with Blackfeather will use acrylic ink on watercolour paper, music practice and meetings to seek to acknowledge and respect Agam. The intention is to produce accessible writings, paintings and music recordings during this residency.

May 2011 The Zone is the first solo exhibition by Ramallah-based audio-visual artists Basel Abbas and Ruanne Abou-Rahme in the UK. A new site-specific installation, it explores the unique social dynamics that have brought about the eruption of a ‘consumerist’ culture into the Palestinian political struggle amidst an increasingly dystopic landscape, a strange site of dreamworld and catastrophe. Responding site specifically to New Art Exchange, The Zone will be a disorientating, sensory experience for the visitor. The work will aim to make the ‘familiar look strange again’, considering specific moments of Palestine’s present and recent past, whilst exploring the potential to evoke alternative futures.

India’s Golden Triangle Mervyn Mitchell

Reminiscent of previous times, cocooned in his chauffer driven taxi, Mervyn secretly observes the life of everyday people that live within India’s Golden Triangle. The exhibition asks the question that although India is experiencing strong economic growth: “If I was to take the same journey in 20 years time, would the view have changed?”
