Specialist note

Gigi Scaria was one of the artists chosen to represent India at the 54th Venice Biennale and the third Singapore Biennale in 2011. His works have been exhibited with several international museums including, MOCA, Taipei (2010); Ivam Museum, Valencia (2008); Mori Art Museum, Tokyo (2008) and The Newark Museum, New Jersey (2007). Much of Scaria's work is an attempt to map the chaotic landscape of urban India, with particular reference to New Delhi, where he has lived since the late 1990s.
