Tigers & Dragons: Art, Wales & The British Empire
If India was the Jewel in the Imperial Crown, could we argue that Wales was England's colony? As Wales struggles for its identity within 'British-ness', are there meaningful comparisons to be drawn with the Indian experience? This Conference coincides with the Glynn Vivian's major exhibition, Tigers and Dragons: India and Wales in Britain (until 2 November 2025) which contains more than 120 artworks by over 70 artists from Wales, India, Pakistan, England and the USA. This programme explores the main thematic sections of the exhibition; unpicking the historical and contemporary threads that link the Indian subcontinent and Wales with the help of artists, curators, historians and cultural theorists.
