Subodh Gupta - War Themes

Quoted from Jack Shaimen website: Subodh Gupta makes a transition of sorts in his own idiom and dialect in his latest work Gandhi’s Three Monkeys. Here a tragic-comic PlayStation War Game is conjured up by sculptures of three soldier heads that are trimmed with eye shades, a mask and a helmet made of Indian brass utensils. The irony and wit in turning the mascot of a Man of Peace into a testament of violence causes these bronze sculptures to embody more subversive possibilities.
