🎨 В Эрмитаже проходит большая выставка современных индийских художников

В Белом зале Главного штаба Эрмитажа открылась выставка «О сладости мира. Современное искусство Индии» — проект, собравший десять авторов из собрания коллекционеров Екатерины и Андрея Теребениных. В 2025 году музей совместно с коллекционерами организовал резиденции для индийских художников в Петербурге, Москве, Палехе и Суздале, что позволило найти множество параллелей между культурами. Несколько авторов сделали новые работы специально для выставки.

Среди участников — Лакшми Мадхаван (работа с керальским хлопком «Тканые тела»), Гарги Райна (серия «SHAFA. Привратники, I–V» из архивной бумаги, чернил и хирургических инструментов), Сумакши Сингх (скульптурные инсталляции «Монументы, I–III»). Работы дополнены диалогами с предметами из коллекций Эрмитажа, Института восточных рукописей РАН, Пушкинского Дома и РНБ — могольскими миниатюрами, росписями монастырей Шёлкового пути, иранскими бронзами.

Название проекта отсылает к средневековой притче «О сладости мира» из «Повести о пустыннике Варлааме и индийском царевиче Иоасафе», широко распространённой на Руси. Выставка работает до 4 октября.
