A selection of approximately 200 paintings, drawings, photographs, videos, sculptures, installations, tapestries and miniatures present multifaceted modernities and contemporary practices.The catalogue, designed by Kiran Ahmad, expands on the research with essays by important art and architecture historians, educators, artists and architects from Pakistan.
