How does one create and run a publishing program in the Indian arts scenario for the alternative, the non-commercial and the experimental? What sparks an idea like this and what propels it forward? What happens when the person behind such a program has no set method, and is instead insistently creative and spontaneous in his work? What springs from this kind of life journey?

Junoon invites Naveen Kishore - publisher, lighting designer and photographer - to Mumbai Local. Known to most as the man behind Seagull Books, Naveen Kishore has consistently created spaces to bring artists to the foreground, throwing up opportunities for them to be seen and heard. Most of his work, however, cannot be pinned down to a format. From the Seagull School of Publishing to the Peaceworks initiative to the independent publishing house in Kolkata - every effort is dynamic and responsive to diverse artistic needs.

At this Mumbai Local, Naveen Kishore looks forward to sharing "a not-so-linear set of thoughts in a poetic vein on a life in theatre and publishing." You can expect to go on a delightful, seemingly whimsical, journey with Naveen, but shall also see, there is clearly method in his madness. As well as a deep sense that the arts are a social commitment, and that the voices of artists must be seen and heard.

Date: Friday, 16th June, 2017
Time: 5:30 pm
Venue: Kitab Khana
