This volume 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. It clearly delineates major developments while contextualising them with previously unpublished examples by well known artists. The first part of the book features the de Boers talking about their interest in 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 Bhattacharya, Ganesh Pyne, A. Ramachandran and Rameshwar 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. This volume hopes to show how the collection takes a dispassionate view of the global status of Indian art, while also revealing a long-term engagement with the country and its creativity. AUTHORS: Rob Dean has worked at Christie's and Sotheby's as a specialist in modern Indian paintings. He has been at the forefront of Indian art auctions for the past 15 years. Giles Tillotson is well known as a writer and lecturer on Indian history and architecture. 211 colour images Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
