Artist Talk: Jitish Kallat

Jitish Kallat’s site-specific installation, "Public Notice 3," returns to the Art Institute of Chicago’s Grand Staircase after 14 years. Initially unveiled on September 11, 2010, the work connects two significant historical events separated by 108 years: the First World Parliament of Religions which began on September 11, 1893, and the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon on September 11, 2001. At the earlier event, a young Hindu monk, Swami Vivekananda electrified audiences in what is now the museum’s Fullerton Hall with a powerful speech calling for an end to religious fundamentalism, intolerance, and bigotry. Hear from Jitish Kallat as he reflects on "Public Notice 3," situating it within his broader artistic practice and sharing a cross-section of his diverse work. The talk concludes with a conversation between the artist, Jitish Kallat, and Alsdorf Associate Curator of Indian, Southeast Asian, and Himalayan Art, Madhuvanti Ghose.
