Talk | Dr. Zehra Jumabhoy
What unites India and Pakistan? On the midnight hour of the 14 August 1947, two nations were born: a ‘secular’ India, and a ‘Muslim’ Pakistan. We know what divides them, but art historian and critic Dr. Zehra Jumabhoy will examine contemporary Indian and Pakistani art in the context of what unites them: the Mughal past.
