Art Exhibit and Film Screening by Gita Hudson

Trained in Art with a Masters degree in Psychology, Gita’s work has been part of many exhibitions since early 90’s.She has been consistently showcasing her works in India and abroad. Her paintings are semi-abstract with the suggestion of a female form, architecture, musical instruments, or some combination of these elements. They simultaneously explore color, texture, line and form, not as juxtapositions or layers but as integral to one another. Her take on Tamilnadu Temple Murals in recent years has been widely written about.Gita is the Curator for Dakshianchitra Heritage Museum, Galleries, Chennai. Gita began making short documentary films in 2005. She regards film-making as an extension of fine arts, which is also their subject matter. She has documented famed contemporary Indian artists and eminent painters of the “Madras Art Movement’’
