Renu Modi, Director, Gallery Espace, hosted the opening of
Postponed Poems, a solo show of terracotta sculptures and drawings by
Delhi-based artist Manjunath Kamath at Gallery Espace amidst a gathering of the
who’s who from the arts fraternity.
Postponed Poems is the aggregate of Kamath’s distinctive
imagery rich with the narratives of everyday life, interwoven with mythologies
and intimate stories. Kamath’s hobby of collecting artifacts over last 30 years
forms the basis for his sculptural work. The old and aged classical and folk
sculptures become the subject for his work which is imparted with his signature
flavour of witticism and satire.

Gallery Espace), Neha Kirpal (director, India Art Fair), Subodh Gupta (artist),
Bharti Kher (artist), Chintan Upadhyay (artist), Gigi Scaria (artist), Arun
Kumar HG (artist), Kanchan Chander (artist), Siri Devi Khandavilli (artist),
