Dismantling West's narratives of ancient art
India's first global co-curation project, 'Ancient Sculptures: India Egypt Assyria Greece Rome', opens at the Key Gallery of the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Vastu Sangrahalaya (CSMVS) in Mumbai. The exhibition features a striking lotus medallion from The Great Buddhist Stupa of Amaravati, symbolizing wisdom. It also showcases sculptures from Egypt, Greece, and Rome, highlighting the connections between ancient civilizations and India's contribution to art. The 10-month exhibition challenges the prevailing Western narrative and aims to promote dialogue and understanding between cultures.
