IFA Curatorial Program
As part of a four-year curatorship program conceptualised by India Foundation for the Arts, Bangalore, the residency established a model of practice-based training for curators. It was an attempt to develop a training ground for emerging curators to engage with various modes of artistic practice as well as be actively involved in critical writing.
About this programme
As part of a four-year curatorship program conceptualised by India Foundation for the Arts, Bangalore, KHOJ hosted a Curatorial Residency for two unique artists, in September 2010. These artists presented their curated works in January 2011.
Tracing a Human Trail: Metaphors of the Frontiers, curated by Oindrilla Maity.
This exhibition was a curatorial venture based on a community that migrated to the outskirts of Kolkata to a town called Asoknagar. This community had survived the riots in Bangladesh and later moved to Delhi. The exhibition touched upon issues of migration, memory, private and public spaces with visual, textual, and aural elements.
Shikaar: The Hunt, curated by Gitanjali Dang
Following the human race’s prehistoric occupation with hunting and gathering, Shikaar: The Hunt played on the new strain of hunters and gatherers who stalk shopping malls today. For the hunt, various artworks were scattered across the mall site. Clue maps guided the participants to the artworks.
