Beyond the Page explores how historical miniature painting from the Mughal courts has been transformed into a contemporary art form by a new generation of Pakistani artists. A highlight of the Festival of Muslim Cultures, the exhibition brings together eight artists trained in this rigorous tradition and now based around the world, from Lahore to London, Berlin to Melbourne. Artist biographies are provided in the present catalogue.
