Madhubani, Mithila Artists

University Club Activity Announcement

Special Presentation by Joan Sharma

"Madhubani, Mithila Artists"

Monday, March 22, 2010
Henry Madden Library Ellipse Balcony Gallery (Third Floor)
5:00 to 6:00 p.m.

Joan Sharma will introduce the Madhubani community of artists through photographs taken during her
2009 sabbatical project to visit artists in the remote villages of Bihar State, India. Artists in this region
were traditionally women and passed their techniques and vibrantly colored, detailed motifs down through
the generations from mother to daughter. The tradition continues to evolve and reflects the rapid change
occurring in India, the largest democracy in the world.
