Kolkata: Run in the Alley

The exhibition Kolkata: Run in the Alley offers a unique artist vision of the metropolis Kolkata (previously known as Calcutta) in India. Bengali and Dutch-based artists make a joint exhibition where they merge techniques, disciplines, and perspectives to create an intensely layered image of the city, in which bamboo scaffolding scenography, dokra-inspired bronze sculptures, cardboard-pulp furniture, accordion books, scrolls, tapestries and drawings are interwoven.

Kolkata: Run in the Alley is curated by Praneet Soi and Manuel Klappe.
