This book presents the work of one of India s
most exciting and internationally visible young
artists who engages with the consequences
of her country s rising global prominence
through her art. Poised at the intersection of art and technology, the sacred
and the secular, Shilpa Gupta's work occupies multiple
contexts: post-feminist art, technology-enabled art, and
transcultural art. The Mumbai-born artist uses interactive
video, found objects, photography, sound, and public
performance to probe the themes of desire, belief, terror,
personal safety, and international security the bar of soap
imprinted with the word THREAT , which can be used, thereby
neutralizing the threat; the projection works Untitled
(Shadows), which require the audience to cast shadows of
themselves onto a screen; the white packages labeled There is
no explosive in this with the no less prominent than the rest.
This monograph features essays that discuss Gupta s work
from the perspective of new media, religious politics, the
critique of the nation-state, and global violence. Thoughtprovoking
and perceptive, Gupta s art emerges in response to
the entanglements of the global contemporary, making it
universally accessible.
