New Indian ExpressGone are the days when gallery spaces were confined to traditional art forms such as paintings and sculptures. Delhi’s Pulp Society, an experimental gallery and printmaking workshop, is exploring similar ideas with their ongoing show, ‘Paper and Play’. The many faces of art Priyanshi Saxena, the curator of Pulp Society, emphasises that the primary focus of ‘Paper and Play’ is on paper-based practices, bringing in a range of artists who use paper as their central medium. “There’s a real lacuna in access to writing about art, and many artists anyway use books and independent publications as a medium,” Saxena said. We’re making different forms of art accessible to people who might not belong to the art world.” The exhibition tables and wall shelves, brimming with zines, posters, and books, feel more like a treasure trove or a library than a typical gallery display, inviting visitors to touch, read, and interact with the works.
