UBS Openings: Saturday Live
Mumbai

Saturday 16 September 2006

UBS Openings: Saturday Live presents a ground-breaking programme of live works at Tate Modern every two months.

This day-long series of events is an opportunity to experience the remarkable cultural scene of contemporary Mumbai and explore the pioneering work produced in this lively and eclectic Indian metropolis.

The day starts with a symposium examining the role arts and culture have played in regenerating the city.

During the day there are two performances by Tejal Shah and Varsha Nair, and Monali Meher.

Later, Cinema of Prayoga  presents films by influential artists whose work portrays contemporary life in their homeland.

In the evening Café 2 is the venue for live performance by poets D’Archetypes, music from Mumbai-based musician Mukul and a performance by Sujata Goel and Tarek Halaby.
