Pioneering Pakistani American, Shahzia Sikander, ane of the most influential artists working today. Sikander is widely historic for expanding and subverting pre-mod and classical Central and Due south-Asian miniature painting traditions and launching the course known today as neo-miniature. By bringing traditional and historical practice into dialogue with contemporary international art practices, Sikander's multivalent and investigative work examines colonial archives to readdress orientalist narratives in western art history. Interrogating ideas of language, trade, empire, and migration through imperial and feminist perspectives Sikander's paintings, video animations, mosaics and sculpture explore gender roles and sexuality, cultural identity, racial narratives, and colonial and postcolonial histories.

Sikander earned a B.F.A. in 1991 from the National College of Arts in Lahore, Pakistan. Her seminal thesis work, The Scroll (1989–1990), which initiated the start of the neo-miniature movement, garnered awards, exhibitions and press, and led to increased enrollment in the NCA'southward miniature painting department. Subsequently, Sikander was appointed lecturer in miniature painting at the schoolhouse. The artist moved to the United States to pursue an M.F.A. at the Rhode Island Schoolhouse of Pattern from 1993 to 1995; from 1995 to 1997, she participated in the Glassell School of Art's Cadre Program at The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston. A recipient of a MacArthur Fellowship (2006) and the State Department Medal of Arts (2012), Sikander's innovative work has been exhibited and collected internationally.

Shahzia Sikander is presently  the subject of a traveling exhibition titled Shahzia Sikander: Extraordinary Realities. The exhibition opened at The Morgan Library, New York in June 2021 and is followed by the RISD Museum, Rhode Isle in November 2021, and MFA Houston, Texas in Bound 2022. On the occasion of these exhibitions, a major new monograph was printed. Boggling Realities, is an exhaustive examination of Sikander'south work from 1987 to 2003, charting her early on development as an creative person in Lahore and the United states, and foregrounding her critical role in bringing miniature painting into dialogue with contemporary fine art. Edited by Jan Howard and Sadia Abbas, with contributions by Gayatri Gopinath, Faisal Devji, Kishwar Rizvi, Sadia Abbas, Jan Howard, Vasif Kortun, Dennis Congdon, Bashir Ahmed, Rick Lowe, and Julie Mehretu.
