PAPER AND PLAY
27 May - 30 June 2023 pulp society, new delhi
Pulp Society is very excited to present Paper and Play, an exhibition/ hang out zone with games, zines, toys, and art books; practices that start with paper, and engage with a diverse audience in different ways. The exhibition is on view at B-247, Okhla Phase 1 in New Delhi from 27 May through 30 June, 2023.
We were grappling with the summer slumber of the art world, and wanted to not just liven it (with the power of air conditioning), but also use this opportunity to invite a brand new audience into the gallery, and the art world, and make it a hospitable 'point of entry'. We therefore thought that we would make the summer shows easy, fun, and consumable.
We had games by Thukral and Tagra [Net Zero: 2030, and Weeping Farm] in 2023, and it was quite a fun show, reminiscent of one of the cyber cafes of the 90s/ early 2000s; in terms of the audiences that gathered. We want to continue to be the summer hangout!
Plus a curator’s corner, and some special publications like Prarthana Singh’s ‘Har Shaam, Shaheen Bagh’.
