Book Indian Painters of Colonial Era  1750   1950 AD

Download or read book Indian Painters of Colonial Era 1750 1950 AD written by Roop Narayan Batham and published by Blue Rose Publishers. This book was released on 2023-03-21 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a documentation of significant practicing painters and sculptors of Greater Pre-Independence India between 1750 and 1950. The task of collecting this scattered material of Colonial-era to the united India, lead to search for names of artists from Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bangladesh and of course India. This register records almost 3000 names of practicing Indian artists, gathered assiduously from National archives, Museum records, rare old journals and books, and present living family members of deceased artists. In the absence of a legitimate record of the names of these forgotten artists names of many famous court painters under the patronage of Kings, Nawabs, and local rulers have been pushed into oblivion, with their works described in generalized terms, like coming from the ‘Colonial Period’ or ‘Post Mughal Period’, with a short description of a few painting styles of Provincial Schools.This book is the first of its kind and a small step towards giving recognition to these lost artists. Roop Narayan Batham

  • Author : Rob Dean
  • Publisher : Mapin Publishing Pvt
  • Release : 2019-04-19
  • ISBN : 9789385360589
  • Pages : 296 pages

Download or read book Modern Indian Painting written by Rob Dean and published by Mapin Publishing Pvt. This book was released on 2019-04-19 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: * The first volume to explore the staggering collection of Jane and Kito de Boer* Functions as an introduction to Indian modernism, with strong representations of several individual artists as well as major movementsModern Indian Painting presents a survey of Indian painting from the late 19th century to the present day, drawn from the private collection of Jane and Kito de Boer remarkable for its broad historical scope and wide range of artists. The book clearly delineates major developments over a long period of time, while contextualizing them with previously unpublished examples by major artists. The first part of the book features the de Boers talking about their passion for India and Indian art. The second part presents a history of modern Indian painting, with essays on the Bengal School, the so-called 'Dutch Bengal' artists, the Calcutta naturalists, the portrait painters of the Bombay School in the early 20th century, the Progressive Artists Group and the post-Independence artists of Bengal. The de Boer collection also contains strong representations of a few individual artists, such as Chittaprosad, Ganesh Pyne, Ramachandran and Broota, whose works are explored through essays and interviews. The fact that many of these chapters draw almost exclusively on the de Boer collection is a testament to its incredible size and breadth. In this volume, we hope to show how the collection takes a dispassionate view of the global status of Indian art, while at the same time revealing a commitment and long-term engagement with the country and its creativity. With contributions from Partha Mitter, Giles Tillotson, Yashodhara Dalmia, Sona Datta, Sanjay Kumar Mallik and Rob Dean.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Wonderful . . . A book to make both layman and connoisseur alike realize why pre-modern Indian painting is one of the great arts of the world.” —Neil MacGregor Through close encounters with over a hundred carefully selected works, spanning nearly a thousand years, and ranging from Jain manuscripts and Pahari and Mughal miniatures to Company School paintings, B. N. Goswamy unlocks the many treasures that lie within Indian painting. In an illuminating introduction, and as Goswamy relates the stories behind each work and deciphers the visual vocabulary and language of the painters, he brings to life the cultural, social, and political milieu in which they were created. Lavishly illustrated, and combining erudition with great storytelling, The Spirit of Indian Painting reveals the beauty of this richly varied body of work in a new and brilliant light.

Book excerpt: "In this major work of criticism in art and social history, Dr. Brody demonstrates that modern Indian painting has been, until 1962, not a truly native expression derived from aboriginal forms but merely a passive response to White paternalism... It has been, according to Dr. Brody, an art produced by Indians for Whites, an invention rather than a revival, with little or no relationship to earlier pictorial modes and functions among the Indians."
