Out of the galleries and onto the streets, art came alive at the NSIC Grounds in Okhla, Delhi, with the India Art Fair 2016, a three-day affair being held from January 28-31. The IAF is currently in its eight season and is the largest contemporary art event in South Asia.
This installation by artist Anita Dube, titled Beef or Mutton is a strong visual reminder of the Dadri lynching. It is made up of PvC tubes, screws, putty, velvet and enamelled eyes.
Her other piece, Portrait shows a blood-stained Annhilation of Caste by Dr BR Ambedkar. This particular art piece, Dube tells us, was made in response to Rohith Vemula’s suicide.
