Radical Terrain: Janaina Tschape on Landscape

"Radical Terrain," the third exhibition in the series Modernist Art from India, highlights the exploration of landscape in Indian art for the generation after independence. The exhibition will also feature new work by international contemporary artists of diverse backgrounds currently working in and identifying with landscape. This is both a response to the modernist paintings on view and to work towards a nuanced conceptual understanding of what "landscape" in art is.
In this interview Assistant Curator Beth Citron speaks with Janaina Tschape about her artistic process, and the role of memory as it pertains to her depictions of landscape.
"Radical Terrain" will be on view at the Rubin Museum of Art, in New York, through April 2013.
