We're delighted to host Berlin-based musician and composer, Simon James Phillips at the JNAF Gallery, on Saturday 16 May for a piano concert followed by a sound workshop.
Through improvisation, Phillips' piano performance will respond to Navjot Altaf’s artworks in our ongoing exhibition, Waste Archives as Landscape.
The concert will be followed by an experimental music workshop.
Using simple, everyday and discarded objects, participants are invited into a shared sonic exploration, not limited by training or tradition, but opened up through curiosity, touch, and listening. Drawing on ideas from new materialism, the workshop considers how objects themselves influence our actions and perceptions.
The workshop offers an entry point where anyone can participate in making and shaping complex soundscapes.
You are welcome to join us for either part of the program or stay on for both!
Glimpses from the opening of 'Navjot Altaf : Waste Archives as Landscape'
We’re grateful to everyone who joined us and made the evening memorable
The exhibition is on view till 10 June
Announcing our next exhibition:
Navjot Altaf | Waste Archives as Landscape
The show brings together recent works by Navjot Altaf that explore human relationships with the environment. Informed by the artist’s research into landfills, the artworks examine the afterlives of refuse, with waste as witness. Through its site-specific installations, the exhibition turns the museum into a space to consider transnational hierarchies of culture and conquest carried in the ceaseless movement of objects, people, plants and debris.
Preview: 12 March, Thursday, 6 pm

Among the photograms created by Nalini Malani in 1970 at VIEW, “Untitled I, II, III” show an even more complex
and time-consuming process with incredibly nuanced photographic results. One more level for
attaining tonal subtleties was obtained by “dodging,” a technique Malani learned from her close
friend and an artist Nasreen Mohamedi. From the final photography, a negative was made, and
blown up to make exhibition prints in a limited edition. These photograms represent Malani’s
early engagement for experimenting with new mediums which became a lifelong passion.
