This review is aimed specifically at readers already in Bangkok, or who are going to be there before 3 December. Please go and see the excellent exhibition “Hermès in the making” at Iconsiam, up on the 8th floor. Trust me! The exhibition offers a fascinating behind-the-scenes glimpse into one of …
There is a small but very interesting exhibition at the Delhi Art Gallery called “Delhi Durbar: Empire, display and the possession of history” and I would urge all my fellow citizens to go and see it. These days, when the very word “colonialism” is a heinous insult in the minds …
There is only one negative thing to share about my “Barbie” experience. NO-ONE was wearing pink in the cinema. We saw the film 3 days ago in Bangkok (where Barbie-mania was full on, I might add) but there were no pink outfits, which was a little sad, because so much …

3 years ago in January 2020, when we last strolled round the India Art Fair, who knew what was looming on the horizon? I just reread my 3 year-old blog post, and it all sounds so carefree. So damned carefree. 3 years later, we headed back to the same venue, …
It’s been almost 5 1/2 years since my last visit to the Crafts Museum in Delhi, at which point I vowed to go there more regularly. So that didn’t exactly go according to plan now, did it? Anyway, I girded up my loins today, battled truly vile traffic jams, and …
