    Tour of Trees

    by Mr. B. S. Chandrashekar
    Scientist-E, Institute of Wood Science & Technology (IWST) Bengaluru

    Trees are a part of India's rich cultural heritage and traditions from time immemorial. Many species we commonly see in our surroundings have been venerated, worshipped, protected, admired, and adored for thousands of years. In the current age where trees are planted for either economic considerations or ornamental purposes, we shall take a look at them from the perspective of their association with history and culture.

    on Saturday, 20th April 2024 at 4.30 pm

    Entry is free for the event.

    NGMA Bengaluru is happy to announce the ar.bo.re.tum which also reminds the ideology of Gandhi who himself was a deep ecologist and, the immense value of nature, NGMA B is also delighted to conduct a Tree walk on the premises to help people to familiarise themselves with the flora and fauna, field methods and data collection.

    L. N. Tallur (b.1971) received a BFA in Painting from Chamarajendra Academy of Visual Arts (1996), a MFA in Museology from Maharaja Sayajirao University (1998), and a MA in Contemporary Fine Art Practice from Leeds Metropolitan University (2002).

    Tallur uses sculpture, wall pieces, interactive work, and site-specific installations to expose the absurdities of everyday life and the anxieties that characterize contemporary society. His work incorporates handmade craftsmanship, found objects, organic and industrial material; symbols of developing India, oftentimes creating a correlation between traditional and contemporary customs. The New York Times eloquently described the artist�s work: �each of his pieces is like a miniature curiosity cabinet, hand-assembled down to the smallest detail and packed with charmed and puzzling surprises.�

    Tallur�s impressive sculptures and installations have been exhibited internationally, including at solo exhibitions in Germany, South Korea, India, China, and the United States. He recently had a major survey exhibition at the Grounds for Sculpture in New Jersey, United States, in 2020 entitled Interference Fringe. Selected group exhibitions include The Idea of the Acrobat, Bikaner House, New Delhi (2020); The Sculpture Park at Madhavendra Palace (2018, 2017); India and the World: History in Nine Stories, CSMVS Museum, Mumbai and National Museum, New Delhi (2017); Constructs/Constructions, Kiran Nadar Museum of Art, New Delhi (2015), After Midnight: Indian Modernism to Contemporary India 1947/1997, Queens Museum, New York (2015); The 7th Asia Pacific Triennial of Contemporary Art (APT7), Queensland Art Gallery, Gallery of Modern Art, Brisbane, Australia (2012); Critical Mass: Contemporary Art from India, Tel Aviv Museum of Art, Israel (2011); Meditation: Asian Art Biennial, National Taiwan Museum, Taiwan (2011); The Empire Strikes Back: Indian Art Today, Saatchi Gallery, UK (2010) and La Route de la Soir, Tri Postal, France (2010).
