The Guernica Project
Volte Art Projects is proud to present The Guernica Project by multidisciplinary artist and storyteller Rahgava KK, from 16 February to 16 April 2022.
Raghava's 2021 work, entitled Guernica for the Siri-ocene, is a monumental 3.5 x 8 meter long painting that marries a wide range of inspirations, including the artist's personal research, his encounter with Picasso’s original 1937 masterpiece, and a broad spectrum of his lived experiences. For this phygital project, Raghava KK draws on his wealth of digital experience that garnered him a record-breaking, $94,500 NFT sale at Sotheby's last year.
A constantly growing series, The Guernica Project comprises paintings, digital prints, and a large selection of NFTs which retell Indian history through cartoon characters and memes. Harnessing the historical and the über-contemporary, Raghava tells a captivating story that rejects the binary classifications of conflict and harmony.
