A unique public event, the Khoj Marathon hopes to provide a critical understanding of art practice, its varied contexts and its value—other than in monetary terms. By inviting artists and intellectuals, from the sciences, political commentators and activists, to be interviewed by Hans Ulrich Obrist it hopes to provide a spirited research into the world of ideas and thought that also influence artistic practice in India.
