Graphic artist Orijit Sen, who has created the world’s largest mural (Virasat-e- Khalsa, in Anandpur Sahib) will be a big draw. Colombian artist Pedro Gomez Egana is developing a site-specific installation that will use sculpture, video, performance art and the audience’s participation to complete itself. He, along with poets from Mexico, Colombia, India, Slovenia, China and Argentina, will lead poetry readings and discuss the role of words and language in the opening week.
