SUMMARY:Such Treasure Revived: A Garden Walk and Visit to the Archives
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a walkthrough by Dhatri S Aradhya at the herbal gar
 dens at the National Centre for Biological Sciences (NCBS) campus - a sere
 ne green spot nestled between a maze of labs\, and beloved by students\, s
 taff\, faculty\, and resident cats alike.\n\nIts roots trace to a groundbr
 eaking exhibit in 2008\, where former cell biologist and scholar of Indian
  botanical-medicinal traditions\, Annamma Spudich\, brought 50 medicinal p
 lants described in the Hortus Malabaricus and planted a living exhibition 
 in its spot. This exhibition\, titled "Such Treasure and Rich Merchandize:
  Indian Botanical knowledge in 16th and 17th Century European Books"\, was
  not only a unique collaboration between horticulturalists\, artists\, and
  historians\, but also one of the many growing efforts by the institution 
 to reflect on history and society.\n\nAlmost two decades later\, the garde
 n thrives\, but how much of a curation remains? And how have those initial
  ideas grown? Discover its story and learn about the Archives at NCBS from
  Shreekant Sadokpam and Mahesh Raman\, and their work to document contempo
 rary botanical records amongst its larger catalogue of history of science.
 \n\nThis programme is in collaboration with NCBS\, and in conjunction with
  MAP's ongoing exhibition\, Paper Gardens: Art\, Botany and Empire.
