Does Size Matter? seeks to break the myth that big alone is beautiful in art. All the paintings on show are part of a project to explore the small format; some painted within or inspired by the traditions of Indian and European miniatures and others using a post-modernist perspective in terms of technique and form. The exhibition explores and experiments with possibilities offered by the small format, not only in terms of genres but also media and display options. Some works are laid out in grids; others are installations and one work is even a miniscule book of images; the restricted format encompasses as many variations as any other format thereby establishing that both variation and creative depth in art is size neutral. The present catalogue includes artist biographies and essay by Seema Bawa.
