Art as Protest: Revisiting India's Modern Masters at Progressive Art Gallery, Dubai

Alongside these modern masters, the exhibition also presents powerful feminist and folk-rooted counter-narratives by artists such as Anjolie Ela Menon, B. Prabha, Madhvi Parekh, and Arpita Singh—women who dared to tell stories often ignored by the dominant discourse.

In the heart of Dubai's thriving cultural scene, Progressive Art Gallery unveils an exhibition that dares to ask—can protest be quiet, spiritual, or even aesthetic? Titled "Intertwined: Revisitation of the Indian Art Narrative," this landmark showcase invites visitors to walk through a visual history of dissent, individualism, and innovation within Indian Modern Art.

Running until 31st May 2025, the exhibition brings together an extraordinary constellation of artists whose works continue to shape conversations about identity, resistance, and legacy.

Curated by Wendy Amanda Coutinho, Intertwined reframes protest beyond its political connotation—positioning it as a deeply personal, creative force that transcends slogans and manifests through form, colour, and symbolism.
