Moving Away at the NID Gandhinagar, partly presented in Hangzhou (China) with the same title, and thereafter at the Kiran Nadar Museum of Art (KNMA) Delhi, brings diverse Bauhaus genealogies together in an exhibition for the first time. Through a series of case studies it becomes possible to compare different responses to the Bauhaus, filtered through cultural translation and grounded in the conditions of a particular locality. This exhibition includes material from the NID archives, exhibited for the first time, to illuminate the story of design education and its pedagogy in India. These historical roots are important to visit at a time when design education in the country is growing at a fast pace.
