    Manifesta 7
    19 July - 2 November 2008

    Manifesta 7, the European Biennial of Contemporary Art will be hosted by the Trentino - South Tyrol Region. For the first time it will take place in Italy and will stretch across an entire regional territory - one hundred and fifty kilometres of crossroads of different cultures and intersecting traditions, rich in historical monuments and in sites of industrial archeology. It involves four cities which together create a single connecting route along the Brenner axis between the north and south of Europe: Fortezza (Bressanone), ex-Alumix factory in Bolzano, the Palazzo delle Poste in Trento, Manifattura Tabacchi and ex-Peterlini factory in Rovereto.

    Singh also takes part in Wedded Bliss, The Marriage of Art and Ceremony, a group exhibition at the Peabody Essex Museum, Massachusetts, USA, 26 April - 14 September 2008
