Episode Synopsis
Aparajita Jain is the co-director of Nature Morte Art Limited since 2012, when she bought a controlling interest in the leading contemporary art gallery. She is also the Founder of terrain.art, India’s first blockchain powered art platform and co-founder of India’s first international sculpture park with the Government of Rajasthan, in Jaipur. She was listed as one among eight influential women in the Indian art world by ARTSY, one of 30 influential women in the art world by ELLE magazine, amongst the 51 art people changing the art world by Observer and amongst the top 100 creatives in India by Harper's Bazaar.
She and Zuckerman discuss working in the arts in India, different realities, whether all artists should be judged by the same standards, taking chances, artists as activists, NFTs as social equalizers, developing a virtual eco system for the arts and democratizing art in India, that it is ok to upset people, being at the edge of the past and the future, the art scene in Delhi, dialogues, whether there is a separate Indian paradigm, the gift of art, how to attract the most amount of people to art, the power of art to change people, art and transcendence, how to experience the infinite and feel connected to life, our souls, what is the worst that can happen in the presence of art, what is next, twenty-two minute meditation, and the importance of context!
