Inauguration 

Curated by Munjarita Mondal

Covers from the collection of Arunabha Ghosh

This exhibition creates a sensory journey through the art of the album cover—where sight, touch, and sound converge. It explores how the physicality of records—their sleeves, textures, and imagery—evokes a personal, almost ritualistic connection to music. As described by Arunabha Ghosh, these objects become vessels of memory, linking past experiences through sensation. In contrast to today’s digital world, the exhibition invites viewers to rediscover music’s tangible presence through the intimate handling of albums.

The exhibition will remain on view from 26 July to 1 August 2025, 11:00 to 19:00 hours daily
