As we debate protests and their space in a democracy, let's look at the work of Jagdish Swaminathan. He wasn't just a painter, but a political activist, writer and in 1982 set up Bharat Bhavan in Bhopal where he juxtaposed tribal with modern art. He will always be remembered for his combativeness, for speaking his mind in the days when freedom of expression was considered critical in building a healthy democracy.
