Divine Gestures: Channels of Enlightenment
Bringing together some of the most rare and exquisite pieces of sculpture from India, Nepal, Tibet and ancient Gandhara, Divine Gestures: Channels of Enlightenment lies at the intersection of religious iconography and fine-craftsmanship. Iconography is often seen through a multivalent lens of factual discourse and the essence of it being a medium to channelize and embody the energy of the respective deity is often overlooked. This exhibit is an ode to the iconographic elements of a sculpture that bridge the tangible and intangible realms of art.
Virtual Exhibitions
Kapoor Galleries' website offers an abundant array of Virtual Exhibitions with fine paintings, sculptures, and works of art that can be perused in an online gallery. In addition to the recent exhibition Dhanvantari's Blessing, other notable presentations include Incarnations of Devotion: South Asian Works of Art, Incarnations of Devotion: Tibetan and Buddhist Paintings and Bronzes, and God/Goddess, to name a few. Viewers can follow a guided tour, which makes catalogue text readily available next to the artworks, or proceed as they wish.
