Join us for a special event to mark the closing of Ashwini Bhat’s Being, Longing… a year-long exhibition at the Palo Alto Art Center. In conversation with Dr. Padma Dorje Maitland, Malavalli Family Foundation Associate Curator, Art of the Indian Subcontinent, at the Asian Art Museum, Ashwini will share insight into her work at the Art Center and beyond. The event will conclude with an opportunity to purchase Ashwini Bhat’s monograph Resonances co-published by Radius Books and the John Michael Kohler Arts Center, and have it signed by the artist. This event is co-sponsored by SACHI, Society for Art & Cultural Heritage of India.
After thirty-five years in Southern India, multidisciplinary artist Ashwini Bhat now lives and works in the foothills of Sonoma Mountain, California. Coming from a background in literature and classical Indian dance, Bhat works in sculpture, installation, ceramics, video, text, and performance developing a unique visual language to explore the intersections between body and nature, self and other.
Ashwini Bhat: Being, Longing… is supported by the Palo Alto Art Center Foundation through a gift from SACHI, Society for Art & Cultural Heritage of India in celebration of its 25th anniversary (1997-2022).
