Cultural Medallion winner (1979) Madhavi Krishnan’s work, Thaipusam, which represented Singapore at the prestigious Adelaide Arts Festival in 1971 was acclaimed for pioneering a successful combination of two ancient Indian art forms, the Bharathanatyam and Kathakali. Her later work, Savitri, was also the first Indian dance drama where Indian classical music and dance were integrated with lines spoken in English by actors. |
