Transforming Gunehar into an Art Stop

Uma Nair

Tucked away in the Kangra hills is a quaint hamlet called Gunehar which came alive for the Shop Art Art Shop 2 Project that was organised by three stalwarts who put their heads and hearts together.

I use the word hearts because the confluence of the village people and the punctuating art works in different parts of the hilly terrain spoke of the beauty of melding and finding new ways to create and signify site specific installations and art.

Ketna Patel Studio (London, Singapore + Pune) and installation artist Puneet Kaushik (Delhi) partnered with the brilliant and energetic Frank Schlichtmann of 4 Tables fame.
