Tyeb Mehta’s figures carry conflict, pressure and existential weight. But they also hold dignity, resilience and clarity.
Reflecting on the title of the retrospective, KNMA’s Artistic Director and Chief Curator Roobina Karode speaks to this balance of weight and lightness that runs through the centennial retrospective.
Experience TYEB MEHTA Bearing Weight (with the lightness of being) and encounter this tension at the heart of the artist’s practice.

⏰10.30am – 6.30pm
📍KNMA, New Delhi
🎟️Free Admission
Curated by Roobina Karode, and presented by KNMA in collaboration with the Tyeb Mehta Foundation and the Saffronart Foundation.
