Founded in 1989, the influential Delhi-based artists' organization
Sahmat, the Safdar Hashmi Memorial Trust, has offered a platform
for artists, writers, poets, musicians, and actors to create and
present works that promote artistic freedom and secular,
egalitarian values. A companion to an exhibition of the same name
at the Smart Museum of Art, "The Sahmat Collective" explores the
contemporary art scene in Delhi while meditating on the power of
art as a tool for social change. "The Sahmat Collective" documents
the history of the organization through a series of case studies,
each presenting new scholarship, vivid images, reprints of original
articles and essays, and interviews with the artists and organizers
of each project. Situating the collective within not only the
political sphere in India, but also contemporary art trends from
around the world, this beautifully illustrated volume offers both
critical essays on the art produced by Sahmat and texts on the
political, social, and artistic climate in India by Smart Museum
staff members, philosophers, musicians, members of Sahmat, art
historians, anthropologists, and artists.
