'A Tale of Two Cities: India | Sri Lanka', a cross-cultural exchange between contemporary artists in India & Sri Lanka bringing together the diverse practices of 11 leading contemporary artists, will be on view from December 15, 2016 through January 15, 2017 at the Serendipity Arts Festival, Goa.The project began with research visits to the historical cities of Anuradhapura in Sri Lanka and Varanasi in India. A diverse group of artists engaged with the project, each with an established, critically acclaimed practice of their own. Over the course of a year, a dynamic dialogue developed and has been extensively archived. In addition to the travelling exhibition, the project resulted in an archive of video and photographs documenting an extended investigation and collective dialogue between leading artists into the complex socio-cultural dynamics of two highly symbolic sites in South Asian history - Varanasi (India) and Anuradhapura (Sri Lanka).The exhibition is also scheduled for March 2017 at Indira Gandhi National Centre for the Arts, New Delhi and July 2017 at Red Dot Gallery, Theertha Artists Collective, Colombo.The exhibition will be on view at the Serendipity Arts Festival, Adil Shah Palace, Panjim, Goa.
