VENICE, ITALY - 9 MAY 2019: "Broken Branches" (2002, Nine wooden cabinets containing hand-coloured framed photographs,
used artificial limbs, tools, found objects, billboard paintings) by artist Atul Dodiya (1959) is seen here at the group exhibition "Our Time for a Future Caring", curated by Roobina Karode for the Indian Pavilion at the 58th International Art Exhibition of La Biennale di Venezia in Venice, Italy, on May 9th 2019.

"Our Time for a Future Caring” is a group exhibition curated by Roobina Karode for the Indian Pavilion at the 58th International Art Exhibition La Biennale di Venezia. This exhibition critically engages with the figure and philosophies of Mahatma Gandhi, reflecting on his enduring impact and the contemporary relevance of his ideals. Gandhi acts as focal point for different artistic interpretations, delving into broader issues of India’s history and
nationhood, as well more conceptual investigations into notions of freedom, nonviolence, action and agency. The exhibition forms part of India’s celebrations of ‘150 years of Gandhi’ and showcases artworks spanning from the twentieth century to the present day by Nandalal Bose, MF Husain, Atul
Dodiya, Jitish Kallat, Ashim Purkayastha, Shakuntala Kulkarni, Rummana Hussain and GR
Iranna.

The 58th International Art Exhibition of La Biennale di Venezia, titled "May You Live In Interesting Times”,is curated by Ralph Rugoff. The Exhibition is is divided into two separate presentations, Proposition A in the Arsenale and Proposition B in the Giardini’s Central Pavilion, comprising 79 artists from all over the world. “May You Live In Interesting Times highlights artworks whose forms function in part to call attention to what forms conceal and the multifarious purposes that they fulfil. In an indirect manner, then, perhaps these artworks can serve as a kind of guide for how to live and think in ‘interesting times’.
