[Reader-list] [Announcements] The schedule for Jagah: In Search of Spaces

[Monica Mody]

The Nigah Media Collective presents

Jagah: In Search of Spaces

THE GENDER AND SEXUALITY EXHIBITION
THE MONTH OF FREE SPEECH: CAMPAIGN AGAINST CENSORSHIP

Venue: Arpana Fine Arts Gallery, Academy of Fine Arts and Literature,
4/6 Siri Fort Institutional Area, New Delhi 110049

Date: 25-27 September 2004


Jagah is a space where one can hang out, meet people, talk and share
experiences, without having to struggle to fit. A jagah for expression
and mediations on gender and sexuality, on our bodies and our desires,
our silences -- both chosen and imposed. A space one can claim as
one's own, one without judgments, one that is not just about "art",
but about creativity, expression, and resistance.

Art can take our unexpressed thoughts and desires and fling them with
clarity and coherence on the wall, a sheet of paper, or against the
silence of history. - Adrienne Rich
