Abstract

VARANASI: Recent paintings of India by Jane Lander

In 2007 Jane Lander travelled to India and was drawn, like many, to the holy city of Varanasi. One of the oldest cities in the world, Varanasi lies on the Ganges, the river of India which plays a sacred and secular role in daily life. Lander’s experience has inspired a new and vivid body of work and led to the development of a figurative impulse in her practice. [Gallery media, 2009]
