LONDON.- In April 2010 Haunch of Venison London
will present Forever Foreign – the first UK solo show of Bengali-American artist
Rina Banerjee, introducing the New York-based artist’s complex, seductive,
corporeal oeuvre.
Banerjee’s drawings, sculptures and assemblage depict
mythical, visionary worlds, reflecting the artist’s Western and Indian
backgrounds with intense colours and hybrid flora and fauna. The fantastical
floating world Banerjee creates is reminiscent of Indian miniature
paintings.
