Jothashilpa

A unique centre for traditional and contemporary art practices, Jothashilpa has firmly established itself as a space where all art forms are treated equally and not measured by art historical terms like traditional, urban, folk art, or craft. Understanding these terms to have more connotations with Western art history, and not to be a true representation of the wide range of arts practices which remain active across South Asia, Jothashilpa has found a way to work beyond this terminology, merging contemporary arts practice with those usually defined as traditional.
