Mingei International Museum, Balboa Park
SONABAI — Another Way of Seeing opens at Mingei International Museum in Balboa Park on Sunday, July 26 and continues through September 5, 2010.
Guest Curator Stephen Huyler has chosen for the exhibition 33 sculptures by Sonabai and her family as well as 38 works by four artists trained by Sonabai. To re-create Sonabai’s environment for the visitor, the innovative installation includes an introductory video, short videos of the artist at work and village scenes, projections of village dancers and photomurals of Sonabai’s studio — all produced by Dr. Huyler. One of the highlights of the exhibition will be a visit from Daroga Ram and Rajen Bai Rajawar, Sonabai’s son and daughter-in-law, to demonstrate Sonabai’s legacy of clay sculpture making. |
