Marking the beginning of our programme of Mani Kaul films at the ICA, this event sought to contextualise the filmmaker’s work, and to mark the connections between the experimental aesthetics used by Kaul and similar practices taking place within Indian cinema at the time. As an essay filmmaker, Mani Kaul engages with a broad range of subjects including the art, classical music, literature and theatre of India, and we will use this symposium as a space to reflect on the diversity and interdisciplinary nature of his films. Film: Siddheshwari, Mani Kaul, India, 1989, digital, 92 minutes, Hindi with English subtitles Siddheshwari is a film about the renowned Hindustani singer Siddheshwari Devi (1903-1977). Blurring fiction and documentary, Kaul’s film showcases his passion for Indian classical music.
