Shilpa Gupta is one of the most critically acclaimed younger artists to have emerged from globalisation-era India. Poised at the intersection of art and technology, the sacred and the secular, her works occupy multiple contexts: post-feminist art, technology-enabled art, and trans-cultural art. The most significant feature of her new media works is that they are universally readable, which makes them accessible and relevant to both local and international audiences. The book features essays by Peter Weibel, Quddus Mirza, Shanay Jhaveri and Nancy Adajania.
