Krishen Khanna

Across the Century, scheduled from January 21st to 25th, 2026, presents a curated selection of works by Krishen Khanna, an artist renowned for his searching, humane exploration of post-Independence Indian experience across seven decades. The exhibition traces the lines of artistic persistence, exploring themes of everyday life, moral ambiguity, and human vulnerability through recurrent motifs like Bandwallas, Mahabharata episodes, and solitary figures. Showcasing key works from his iconic series, the exhibition highlights Khanna’s technical mastery across diverse mediums, from mixed media on canvas and paper to large-scale triptychs and pentaptychs. The presentation stands as a testament to the artist’s lifelong inquiry into renewal through revisitation, where familiar subjects gain fresh psychological depth via layered surfaces, earthy palettes, and pared-down forms.
