Overview
VISTARA was part of 'The Festival of India' - a series of major exhibitions in the 1980's organised by Pupul Jayakar, that the Govt. of India presented around the world: in London, New York, Moscow, Tokyo, Berlin, and so forth. VISTARA presented not only the great monuments of Indian history but also examples of the vernacular habitat that existed alongside - and the beliefs and mythic imagery that had generated them both. The video is a single-screen condensation of a 9-projector multi-media presentation created by Imtiaz Dharker to articulate the central themes of the exhibition.
