Saree ka Gunijan Khana:
The Adda of the Saree Enthusiasts
Saree ka Gunijan Khana, the theoretical and performance aspect of Red Earth’s The Saree Festival hopes to bring together various voices and ideas around the Saree, in a multidisciplinary approach to celebrate the wondrous swirl of the Saree.
The Gunijan Khana, literally the house of learned figures, will weave in talks, discussions, and presentations highlighting varied Saree awakenings, introduced to us by practitioners from diverse practices like art, social sciences, architecture, film, multiple design mediums, and other artistic media.
In addition, the treasure trove will also feature performances by dancers, musicians, writers, poets, and possibly also include work in other artistic media like theatre, visual art, film and performance art. All to sing the glories of our beloved, the Saree!
The 2014 inaugural edition of the Saree ka Gunijan Khana will unfold over two days, Saturday 3 May and Sunday 4 May, 10 am to 1 pm on both days in the auditorium of Alliance Francaise de Delhi.
