Join us for an exciting new exclusive Show & Tell 'Rupee & Rupiah: India & Indonesia' by Sarmaya's Founder, Paul Abraham, as he explores the fascinating shared history of the Indian Rupee and the Indonesian Rupiah.
Linked not only by trade routes but also by centuries of cultural exchange, India and Indonesia share deep linguistic, artistic and spiritual connections. In this show & tell, discover how these rich intersections of culture and commerce shaped the evolution of the currencies of India and Indonesia. This show & tell is in tandem with our current exhibition 'Odyssey of the Rupee: From India to the World'.
Marking 75 years of the Indian Rupee, Odyssey of the Rupee is Sarmaya’s most ambitious exhibition yet. Curated by Dr Shailendra Bhandare of the Ashmolean Museum, University of Oxford, with Sarmaya Arts Foundation, the showcase spans centuries of currency, from ancient punch-marked coins to the first coin minted in Independent India. The exhibition also explores how the rupee travelled beyond borders, featuring beautiful and rare coins and notes from regions like Mozambique, Java, and Saudi Arabia.
