Art reinterprets Art: God, Sex, Money in Western and Indian Art
ISBN: 9781477638408 / Angielski / Miękka / 686 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. As our world becomes smaller and our societies more familiar and accessible, the ideas and concepts that drive thought and expression in different cultures become a part of our lives as well. A close examination of Western and Indian art from the prehistoric era to contemporary times reveals contrasts as well as similarities. However, modern art suggests convergences between these two ideologically disparate societies as the world becomes increasingly interconnected. This method, however, requires a close study of different, unconnected cultures from the beginning of expression through a more...

Art and Emergency : Modernism in Twentieth-Century India
ISBN: 9781784531096 / Angielski / Twarda / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. During states of emergency, normal rules and rights are suspended, and force can often prevail. In these precarious intervals, when the human potential for violence can be released and rehearsed, images may also emerge. This book asks: what happens to art during a state of emergency? Investigating the uneasy relationship between aesthetics and political history, Emilia Terracciano traces a genealogy of modernism in colonial and postcolonial India; she explores catastrophic turning points in the history of twentieth-century India, via the art works which emerged from them. Art and Emergency...

Trace Retrace: Paintings, Nilima Sheikh
ISBN: 9789382381136 / Angielski / Twarda / 392 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Nilima Sheikh's art practice from 1969 to 2012 forms the subject of Trace Retrace. The book is structured in three parts: visual, discursive, and a combination of the two. The largest narrative is visual - a selection from Nilima Sheikh's paintings in diverse formats, chosen to signal the artist's commitment to process, and to indicate the way her paintings slide into, work with and against each other, and propose a meandering seriality. The often extensive reproduction of details from these paintings introduces the unexpected, eliciting not only a flitting or looping gaze but also...
