Press Release

London-based artists Prem Sahib, Jake Grewal, and Sunil Gupta illuminate the queer form that ‘place’ takes within a range of aesthetic practices. Gupta was born in New Delhi, emigrated to Montreal, Canada in 1969, and lived in New York City before settling in London. He has also lived, worked, and shown in India, setting him apart in this exhibition. However, together these three artists engender an intergenerational dialogue invested in queer intimacies. Without forcing a genealogy neither, they deploy various media - photography, painting, and sculptural form – to demonstrate the agility and expansiveness of queer form at multiple convergences.

About the Gallery

Jhaveri Contemporary was formed in 2010 by sisters Amrita and Priya with an eye towards representing artists, across generations and nationalities, whose work is informed by South Asian connections and traditions. The gallery’s dedication to original scholarship, engendered through its carefully crafted shows, is one of the many ways it distinguishes itself. Entwined with this philosophy is another guiding principle: showcasing the heterogeneous practices of long-celebrated luminaries as well as emerging talents, often in generously interrogative conversations. With a focus on mining lesser-known art histories, Jhaveri Contemporary facilitates dialogue between artists, curators and historians to add to the wider field of art. Estates served by the gallery include Mrinalini Mukherjee and Anwar Jalal Shemza.
