Strippoli’s solo exhibition, titled Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam: The World Is One Family, on display at Bihar Museum, Patna, till December 31, brings together ‘map artworks’ that the Italian artist has created in collaboration with indigenous artists from around the world, including India. The exhibition has been curated by Tunty Chauhan, Founder, Threshold Art Gallery.

Born Nicola Strippoli in 1952, he was given the name ‘Tarshito’, meaning ‘seeker of inner knowledge’, by his guru Osho, whom he met on his first trip to India in 1979. “I left Italy with the ship to Greece and crossed Turkey, Persia, Afghanistan and Pakistan to arrive in India, where I stayed for six months,” he says.
