Visiting a museum can often be a solitary experience. One either stands in front of an exhibit, reading the information displayed next to it, or takes an audio tour. But what if the curator of an exhibition takes you through the artefacts where you will be explained not only what’s before you, but where the thought that went into putting it all together will also be revealed. The Piramal Art Foundation, through its Discovering Japanese Art exhibition, aims to redefine this experience by weaving in an element of interaction with the curator.
