'Bombay/Mumbai 1992-2001' was part of the 2001 Tate Modern exhibition 'Century City: Art and Culture in the Modern Metropolis'. 'Century City' explores the relationship between the metropolis and creation of art, focusing on twentieth-century art centres of the modern world – Paris, New York, Vienna, Moscow, London, Bombay/Mumbai, Lagos, Rio de Janeiro and Tokyo. Curators included Okwui Enwezor, Olu Obuibe, Emma Dexter, Lutz Becker, Geeta Kapur, Ashish Rajadhyaksha, Donna De Salvo, Serge Fauchereau, Paulo Venancio Filho, Reiko Tomii, Richard Calvocoressi, and Keith Hartley.
Beginning from the sectarian riots of 1992-1993, the exhibit 'Bombay/Mumbai 1992-2001' presents the self-battling visual culture of the city and its desire to transform. Works included installations, photography, films and videos, paintings, and sculptures.
