SUMMARY:Sundaram Tagore’s Documentary Film Screening\,  ‘Tiger City’
DESCRIPTION:A Tribute to Louis Kahn’s 20th Century Architectural Icon: The National Assembly Building of Bangladesh \nIn the early 1960s\, Louis I. Kahn was invited by the Pakistani government to design the buildings that would serve as its eastern capital in Dhaka which\, after the East Pakistani freedom struggle\, became the Capital Complex of Bangladesh. \nSundaram Tagore’s 8-year film-making journey is a tribute Kahn’s famous Parliamentary Complex Sher-e Bangla Nagor\, also known as the Tiger City’. \nIn order to make this feature-length documentary film\, Tagore’s quest led him to more than fourteen countries to find out how this visionary American architect built such a daringly modern and monumental complex in Bangladesh. \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:POWER\, POSTURE\, AND PRIVILEGE: THE POLITICS OF THE SEAT IN INDIA
DESCRIPTION:SACHI AND ASIAN ART MUSEUM\, SAN FRANCISCO \nInvite You to Explore Unique Perspectives on Seating Culture in India in an Insightful Discussion \nPOWER\, POSTURE\, AND PRIVILEGE: THE POLITICS OF THE SEAT IN INDIA \nAre you sitting down? Reconsider the meaning of an object that we use daily with Sarita Sundar\, author of the new book “From the Frugal to the Ornate: Stories of the Seat in India.” Sundar’s presentation will examine seats that resist typecasting; seats that defy time and space; and seats that inspire a range of emotions — from Gandhi’s humble seat on the floor to the ubiquitous plastic monobloc chair and the legendary Peacock Throne. Beyond the physical characteristics of a seat\, Sundar’s research considers its relationships with the sitter and surrounding figures: the power and privilege a seat can grant\, simply by association. From India’s history to the present day\, discover what the seat is for\, what worlds it belongs to\, and what worlds it can open. \nABOUT THE SPEAKER \nSarita Sundar is the Founder of Hanno\, a heritage interpretation and design consultancy. Her interests in cultural and design history have led the direction of her work\, which ranges from examining vernacular typography to research into the intangible and material culture of performance practices in the temples of Valuvanad\, Kerala. Sundar has taught and evaluated courses on the history of design at various colleges in India and abroad. She builds upon her past work through a 2022-23 Fulbright Visiting Scholar Fellowship that looks critically at intersectional milestones in Indian and American design histories. \nRSVP: info@sachi.org; \nRegister here \n\n\n\n	Related
