Book Synopsis Memory, Metaphor, Mutations by : Yashodhara Dalmia
Download or read book Memory, Metaphor, Mutations written by Yashodhara Dalmia and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2007 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "As boundaries slowly dissolve and interactive realities become evident, the cultures of India and Pakistan are beginning to draw attention. Recent exchanges have taken place in the realm of music, cinema, and other cultural forms. Moreover, both nations share a heritage of Mughal miniatures, Rajasthani and Pahari art, and are bound together by history and the problematics of the present. The contemporary art of the two countries, in all its vitality, today has a new identity. The illustrated book reveals the heterogenous, complex, and vibrant life of the subcontinent of South Asia that is reflected through both Pakistani and Indian art." "In the first part of the book, Salima Hashmi introduces the art practices of Pakistan, since Partition, and their historical background. She goes on to discuss the subversive work of women artists, who have recently asserted themselves. The section ends with an overview of artists who have blended rather uniquely the miniature tradition with contemporary trends." "The second part by Yashodhara Dalmia, begins with the historical development of art in India from the turn of the twentieth-century to the present. There follows a focus on the Progressive Artists' Group, which leaned heavily towards modernism in the fifties, and remains of paramount importance today."--Jacket.

Book Synopsis Intersections of Contemporary Art, Anthropology and Art History in South Asia by : Sasanka Perera
Download or read book Intersections of Contemporary Art, Anthropology and Art History in South Asia written by Sasanka Perera and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-02-23 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taking South Asia as its focus, this wide-ranging collection probes the general reluctance of the cultural anthropology to engage with contemporary visual art and artists, including painting, sculpture, performance art and installation. Through case studies engaged equally in anthropology and visual studies, contributors examine art and artistic production in India, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Nepal to bring the social and political complexities of artistic practice to the fore. Demonstrating the potential of the visual as a means to understand a society, its values, and its politics, this volume ranges across discourses of anthropology, sociology, biography, memory, art history, and contemporary practices of visual art. Ultimately, Intersections of Contemporary Art, Anthropology and Art History in South Asia simultaneously expands and challenges the disciplinary foci of two fields: it demonstrates to art criticism and art history the necessity of anthropological and sociological methodologies and theories, while at the same time challenging the “iconophobia” of social sciences.

Download or read book Hanging Fire written by Salima Hashmi and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Accompanying the first U.S. museum exhibition devoted to contemporary art from Pakistan, this dynamic catalogue provides a groundbreaking look at recent and current trends in Pakistani art. Hanging Fire covers a fascinating range of subjects and media, from installation and video art to sculpture, drawing, and paintings in the "contemporary miniature" tradition. Essays by distinguished contributors from a variety of fields, including Salima Hashmi, Pakistani-American sociologist and historian Ayesha Jalal, and the celebrated novelist Mohsin Hamid, place contemporary Pakistani art in a cultural, historical, and artistic perspective. The book's title, Hanging Fire, alludes to the contemporary economic, political, and social tensions--both local and global--from which these artists find their creative inspiration. It may also suggest to the viewer to delay judgment, particularly based on assumptions or preconceived notions about contemporary society and artistic expression in Pakistan today.

Book Synopsis Art for Education by : Salima Hashmi
Download or read book Art for Education written by Salima Hashmi and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Citizens Foundation (TCF) is a professionally managed, non-profit organization set up in 1995 in Karachi by a group of citizens who wanted to bring about positive social change through education. Twenty two years on, TCF is one of Pakistan's leading and award-winning organizations for the education of less privileged communities. The Italian Friends of The Citizens Foundation (IFTCF) in Milan presents this first ever group exhibition "Art for Education" showcasing 60 Pakistani artists, internationally acclaimed and talented emerging, who have all donated their artworks in support of quality secular education for disadvantaged children in Pakistan. Held at a prestigious museum in Milan, this groundbreaking show is curated by two renowned South Asian art writers and specialists Salima Hashmi and Rosa Maria Falvo. Few intitiatives in the contemporary art world engage the direct relationship between art and education. And fewer still celebrate the status and power of both fields to address and stimulate positive change for global issues such as gender, geopolitics, ethnicity and social responsibility. In this exhibition art is truly at the service of education, and education is the tool used by art, through artists and their audiences, to cultivate the hearts and minds of two very different realities.
