Beyond the Page showcases the phenomenon of a younger generation of artists, Pakistans's avant-garde, who have responded positively to tradition rather than rejecting it. Hammad Nasar explores the idea of ‘miniature as attitude,’ while Anna Sloan traces the development of this attitude, exploring how it sits internationally within the context of contemporary installation art, and Virginia Whiles and Roger Connah take a detailed look at Zahoor ul Akhlaq’s work, highlighting his explorations of the miniature. Beyond the Page accompanies exhibitions at Asia House in London and Manchester Art Gallery.
