National Art Gallery, Chennai
Could not go in when I went there around mid 2007. They all look almost the same, dont they? I am not an expert on this subject, but so many motifs seem similar to those found in the Red Fort - the parapet, the arches, the posts at the corners.

Postcards from Chandigadh
A mural at Sector 17, Chandigadh. As a child, I remember, Sector 17 used to be one of the hep places to visit. "You can get anything here - from a needle to a car" our relatives used to tell us. A visit this time without the family, but just a few relatives, and without the enthusiasm of looking forward to a Fanta, was a bit dull. Yes, years ago the book shops too used to be a big draw.

Center for Advanced Studies, Shimla
A few kilometers from Shimla, Center for Advanced Studies is a good picnic spot. Entry into the actual building is some INR 20 or so. We never went in for we reached there at lunch time (it is closed around that time), and later we did not have the drive to go in. The skin was beautiful enough.
How would it look if the corridors were lined with hanging lines and clothes and flowerpots and painted patches and bits of posters? I think it would look nice. And a lot more livable.
