New Yorkers mark you calendars! Engendered, a South Asian multi-disciplinary arts festival, will be held in Lincoln Center April 18-20. The three-day event focuses on gender, sexuality, ritual, and religion in the context of South Asia.
Engendered includes panel discussions with prominent writers and activists contributing to the emerging South Asian queer identity. Over thirty performing artists will be showcasing pieces that revolve around the notion of gender. Last but not least, Mira Nair, Priya Sen, and Harjant Gill are only a few of the many filmmakers whose works will be screened during the festival.
Engendered is presented by Nayikas, New York's first Odissi Dance Company, in partnership with the Indo-American Arts Council.
Check out the festival program; so many thought-provoking sections, so little time! The deadline for purchasing an all-festival pass has expired, but tickets for individual programs are still on sale. Student rates are available!

I think these international exhibitions must be distinguished from art fairs, market-oriented gatherings of art dealers and their wares, which have recently emerged as among the most important art-world venues for promoting artists and sales of contemporary art in the present-day super-heated art market.
