DAG, The Taj Mahal Palace, Colaba, Mumbai

Please join us for the opening of Contours of Identity: Francis Newton Souza & Avinash Chandra, an exhibition that celebrates 100 years of F. N. Souza and pairs him with his fellow émigré artist Avinash Chandra, two of the best-known Indian artists in 1960s London.

Their works, while markedly different in style, are notable for their bold explorations of sexuality while revealing complex negotiations with their cultural identity in Western contexts.

The walkthrough will begin at 5.30pm followed by a wine reception.
