Goddess, Lion, Peasant, Priest: Modern and Contemporary Indian Art From The Collection of Shelley and Donald Rubin

"Goddess, Lion, Peasant, Priest: Modern and Contemporary Indian Art from the Collection of Shelley and Donald Rubin is an exceptional collection of modern Indian works. This is the first public display of more than 50 works from 30 of India's most famous artists, including Francis Newton Souza, Sakti Burman, Seema Kohli, and Maqbool Fida Husain.
