Genders of Indian Music Exhibition

News | Posted on Friday 16 June 2017

This exhibition on the Genders of Indian Music is part of the Festival of Ideas (8 to 16 June).

Inspired by the image of Shiva and Shakti (Parvati) as one body – half-man half-woman – this exhibition explores the qualities men and women have brought to the evolution of Indian music.

Presented by the Asian Music Circuit, it covers subjects including divine and human musicians, how music is seen as feminine and masculine, and the influence of colonisation and globalisation.

The exhibition runs from Tuesday 6 to Friday 16 June. Opening times are available on the website.  

It can be found in the Ron Cooke Hub, University of York.
