Art musings with Gita Hudson
Trained in Art with a Masters degree in Psychology, Gita Hudson has been showcasing her paintings in India and abroad since early 90’s. She is also a documentary film maker since 2005. Gita regards filmmaking as an extension of fine arts, and has documented famous contemporary Indian artists and eminent painters of the ‘Madras Art Movement’ such as Yousef Arrakal and Dr.Alphonso Arul Doss. Her documentaries also span other diverse subjects such as the string puppeteers of Tamil Nadu, the Kurumba tribes of the Western Ghats, etc. Gita is also the Program Officer for Dakshinachitra, and has done retrospective exhibitions of eminent artists.
Gita will talk to us about her journey from art to filmography and share anecdotes and selected clips from her films, offering us a glimpse of the personalities behind the art.
