SUMMARY:Art & Art History Research Lecture Series: Karin Zitzewitz
DESCRIPTION:
 Dr. Zitzewitz will present her research in a lecture 
 titled, Forms of the Secular in Modern 
 Indian Art. Since 1996, Hindu nationalist activists 
 have publicly declared that the work 
 of India's most prominent modernist painter, 
 M.F. Husain, offends their religious sensibilities. 
 The success of this campaign hinges on 
 the association of modernist art with secularism. 
 Examining Husain alongside two of his contemporaries, 
 Zitzewitz shows the range of possible 
 manifestations of the link between art 
 and secularism in contemporary India. \n\n
