The Bellefonte Art Museum in collaboration with Christina Dhanuja, writer and co-founder of Dalit History month, presents Heralding Utopias: Conception of a caste-less, class-less, state-less world
Heralding Utopias brings together visual art created by artists, whose conceptions of a world are free from caste, class, and state divisions. This exhibition, showcasing thirty unique pieces of artwork, takes its inspiration from the utopian vision of the 15th century Indian saint-poet Guru Ravidas. Titled Begumpura, the saint imagines a place with no pain, taxes, or terror; no one is third or second in this land, and everyone is a friend of another.
Exhibition Committee Members: Christina Dhanuja, Lori Fisher, Pat House, Nalini Krishnunkutty, and Alagammai Meyappan
