This is his first full retrospective exhibition that will cover the entire range of his work from the 1950s to the 1990s. This exhibition surveys the portable furniture supplied to British gentleman officers by preeminent cabinet makers and designers of the times. The dual significance of the art of Amrit and Rabindra Kaur Singh is demonstrated in their work, which revives the 'dying' tradition of Indian miniature painting. Combining wit, political satire, and spirituality within an intricate and vibrant style, their paintings have a universal appeal that transcends cultural barriers. Drawing primarily from the Center s permanent collection and especially from Paul Mellon s recent bequest, this exhibition will feature some of the great landmarks in the mapping and exploration of the New World, from the great Age of Discovery to the mid-nineteenth century.
