Book excerpt: E/Merge: Art of the Indian Diaspora is the catalog for a special exhibition of the same name organized by the National Indo-American Museum (NIAM) to inaugurate its new Umang and Paragi Patel Center in Lombard, Illinois in September 2021. Founded in 2008, NIAM represents the full spectrum of the cultural, linguistic, regional, socio-economic and religious diversity of Indians living in the US. The museum builds bridges across generations and connects cultures through the diverse, colorful stories of Indian Americans.The exhibition was curated by Shaurya Kumar, Associate Professor and Chair of Faculty, , School of the Art Institute of Chicago, who also provided an essay for the catalog, along with art historian Dr. Karin Zitzewitz, Associate Professor of Art History and Visual Culture, Michigan State University. The catalog features photographs of the work of the nine Indian American modern artists participating in the exhibition, as well as artists' statements, biographies and portraits. According to Kumar, "All [these] artists have moved past the oversimplified notion of diaspora and were arguably never there. They travel through multiple narratives of different nations and feel at home in the world, moving in relation to and often beyond their transnational roots." They are: Avantika Bawa, Sarika Goulatia, Sreshta Rit Premnath, Kaveri Raina, Nandita Raman, Surabhi Saraf, Kuldeep Singh, Neha Vedpathak, and Kushala Vora, and their works range from site-specific installation to deconstruction and transformation of objects, to film, sculpture and paintings. Several artists have invented new unique methods of working, such as Vedpathak's "plucking". Zitzewitz describes the work in the exhibition this way: "There is little outward reference to the particularities of the Indian diasporic experience or the circumstances of the time, but rather a deliberate turn toward abstraction." The catalog concludes with a brief history of NIAM and an exhibition checklist of works displayed at the Patel Center from September 2021 through March 2022. Major funding for the catalog, the exhibition, and associated programs was provided by a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts.

Book excerpt: Exhibition catalog for the Circle of Truth traveling art exhibition. Curated by Laura Hipke & Shane GuffoggForeword by: Randy Hipke Preface by: Paul RuschaThe Circle of Truth project is a visual game of Telephone, sometimes called a Rumor Game.49 artists, including Ed Ruscha, Shane Guffogg, Billy Al Bengston, Lita Albuquerque, Jim Morphesis, Charles Arnoldi, Robert Williams, and Ruth Weisberg, created works especially for the Circle of Truth project, in absolute secrecy over a period of nine years. The catalog dedicates a full spread to each of the 49 artists with color images of the art they received and responded to, the art they created, as well as an essay they wrote about their experience. The catalog provides a rare look at the thought processes and studio practices of these unique and private people.The Circle of Truth project is a wholly unique collaboration of 49 contemporary artists, each sequestered and unknown to one another, working in absolute secrecy. Taking a full nine years from launch to fruition, the Circle is a modern, visual take on a common childhood schoolroom exercise, wherein a secret message was whispered from student to student. Often referred to as the Rumor Game or Telephone.In the case of the Circle of Truth, the "whispered" message was imbued in the first painting, which was then delivered, along with a blank canvas, to the second artist. That artist was given no direction other than to find the Truth in in the previous painting, respond to what they perceived, and create a work using the blank canvas, that would go to the next artist, also unknown to them. And so, it went, through 49 artists, each confronted with a work from an unknown artist and a blank canvas. Participants were encouraged to work outside of their normal, comfortable styles. Once their creations were complete, each was asked to write an essay about their experience.The 49 works of art were created specifically for the Circle of Truth by 49 different and often disparateartists. Mostly oil paintings, all of the works measure 20 inches square by 2 inches deep, and are presented in chronological order. The Circle of Truth project opens a dialog regarding the nature of what we consider Truth to be, and evenwhether we think it exists. The Circle of Truth exhibition touches on a need that resinates deeply in the human psyche - access to meaningful, truthful contact with others. This truthful contact is the secret ingredient in the Circle of Truth project.Using paint and words the artists speak to the viewers candidly, providing a rare perspective into theirexperience and thought processes.Viewers of all ages and backgrounds, will be able to quickly understand and appreciate the meaning of the Circle of Truth. There are no prerequisites or any fundamental knowledge needed to appreciate and recognize Truth. The Circle relies simply on the viewers' inherent human nature.The LA-based Project was conceived by artist, Laura Hipke and co-curated with artist, Shane Guffogg.
