Join us for a discussion that centres the Hindu temple in today’s landscape of automobility, wireless connectivity and economic reformation.

Art historian Annapurna Garimella will be in conversation with Marg’s editor Jyotindra Jain and architect-academic Kaiwan Mehta on the dynamics of modern temple architecture, the emerging phenomenon of replica shrines and people’s engagement with these sites.

Copies of Marg’s recent book on the subject: The Contemporary Hindu Temple: Fragments of a History, edited by Annapurna Garimella, Shriya Sridharan and A. Srivathsan will be available at a special discount at the venue.
