The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York is currently hosting an exhibition of artwork from the Pahari tradition of North India. Set in an intimate gallery in an annexe of the Southeast Asian Art section of the museum, “Seeing the Divine” offers a small but invaluable selection of Pahari works—including those by notable artists like Nainsukh and his older brother Manaku, who are well-recognised by Indian art historians. I was fortunate to speak with the exhibition curator, Kurt Behrendt.
