Abstract
ABSTRACT This article presents an interview with artist Jitish Kallat, on the occasion of his curation of the exhibition, Tangled Hierarchy (2 June–10 September 2022), at the John Hansard Gallery (UK); and later staged at the Kochi-Muziris Biennale in India (13 December 2022–10 April 2023). The focal point of the exhibition are five brief notes written by Mahatma Gandhi on the backs of old envelopes, which Kallat viewed in the Archives of the University of Southampton. Penned on 2 June 1947, as a means of communication with Lord Mountbatten despite Gandhi undertaking a vow of silence, the envelopes pertain to the imminent partition of the Indian subcontinent. Opening on 2 June 2022, so marking 75 years of the momentous meeting, Tangled Hierarchy presented a carefully curated display of historically and geographically diverse contributions; establishing a complex, layered reading of histories, perspectives and meanings.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Visual Art Practice (JVAP) is a forum of debate and inquiry for research in art. JVAP is concerned with visual art practice including the social, economic, political and cultural frames within which the formal concerns of art and visual art practice are located. The journal is concerned with research engaged in these disciplines, and with the contested ideas of knowledge formed through that research. JVAP welcomes submissions that explore new theories of research and practice and work on the practical and educational impact of visual arts research. JVAP recognises the diversity of research in art and visual arts, and as such, we encourage contributions from scholarly and pure research, as well as developmental, applied and pedagogical research. In addition to established scholars, we welcome and are supportive of submissions from new contributors including doctoral researchers. We seek contributions engaged with, but not limited to, these themes: -Art, visual art and research into practitioners'' methods and methodologies -Art , visual art, big data, technology, and social change -Art, visual art, and urban planning -Art, visual art, ethics and the public sphere -Art, visual art, representations and translation -Art, visual art, and philosophy -Art, visual art, methods, histories and beliefs -Art, visual art, neuroscience and the social brain -Art, visual art, and economics -Art, visual art, politics and power -Art, visual art, vision and visuality -Art, visual art, and social practice -Art, visual art, and the methodology of arts based research
