Galleria Continua is delighted to welcome Shilpa Gupta back to its San Gimignano space. Widely regarded as one of the most significant international artists of her generation, Gupta presents an exhibition featuring a compelling and varied selection of works, each rooted in her ongoing critical engagement with themes of mobility, control, and acts of resilience. Among them is a newly created installation for the auditorium of the former cinema-theater.
The exhibition opens with a large embroidered piece that meditates on the limitations of state-sanctioned borders. Using a delicate, fine thread, Gupta reimagines symbols of national identity through densely layered forms inspired by flags, subtly questioning the state’s role in imposing order and uniformity within societies shaped by the fluidity of cultures and the mutability of belonging.
