The effort, the vision behind and the canvas of …about Ram raises the bar of innovation in puppetry.” The Statesman on Anurupa Roy and Vishal Dar’s puppetry and multi-media performance …about Ram. S Introduction IFA completed a decade of grant-making in 2006 and our Board of Trustees initiated a review of our programmes and operations. Th e recommendations of the review and our own thinking led to the creation of a strategic plan which addresses needs and challenges in the arts that we had not focused on earlier. Th e focus of this plan is three-pronged: to supplement our support for projects in the arts by funding the creation and strengthening of infrastructure for the arts; to go beyond grant- making and engage directly with diff erent com- munities through seminars, festivals and publi- cations; and to strengthen our communication and public relations in order to draw greater attention to the work we support. Under the fi rst category we have identifi ed two crucial needs: (1) to strengthen curatorial discourse and practice in the visual arts and cinema, and (2) to expand facilities for rehear- sal, training and performance for theatre and allied arts. A quarterly e-newsletter (the fi rst White Time (fi breglass on thermocol and plastic sheet) S D Hariprasad’s sculptures. (See also pp. 3, 5, 6.) 1 2 of which went out in October 2006), an arts magazine, an annual arts festival and a series of conferences on the arts are the highlights of our community engagement programme. And hav- ing recruited a public relations officer in March 2007, we expect to create an effective PR cam- paign and build relationships with the media in the coming year. Alongside, our fundraising has also acquired a new thrust. Our expanding programmes require us to increase our endowment consider- ably. This stood at approximately Rs 9.75 crore (US$2.32 million) before we received a gener- ous grant of Rs 9 crore (US$2 million) from the Ford Foundation in 2006-7. We will launch a corpus fund campaign in 2007-08 and our goal is to raise a further Rs 16 crore (US$4 million) over a period of four years. While IFA has received ad hoc donations from trustees, ex-trustees and well wishers, we have not had a strategic focus on individuals. We will soon be embarking on a campaign called ‘Friends of IFA’ to encourage individuals in India and abroad to make modest annual donations towards IFA’s ongoing work. All in all, the past year was spent rethinking IFA’s programmes, fundraising strategies, governance and operating systems. The Point (fibreglass) coming year will be exciting and challenging as we go about putting into action the new ideas to which we have committed ourselves. Driving these changes, however, will be the very ideals underlying our grant-making over the last decade—the championing and single-minded support of the arts.

Kamal Swaroop, Mumbai Rs 6,05,000 over ten months For interdisciplinary workshops involving students of creative writing, fi lm and graphic design towards generating short narratives, a screenplay and a storyboard on the life of pioneering fi lmmaker Dadasaheb Phalke. Th ese separate outcomes may be independently published and disseminated, while the fi nal storyboard is expected to form the basis of a feature fi lm on Phalke. 2. S D Hariprasad, Vishakapatnam Rs 6,00,000 over two years For experimentation in new media like glass, plastic, acrylic and stainless steel. Th e importance of space, weight and colour in the making of sculpture will be explored, as well as sculptural possibilities in specifi c media, like widely available, pre-processed plastic forms. Training in the coldworking technique of direct sculpting and cold processing of glass and in the use of computer software and technology to create sculptures will be shared with students and peers through demonstrations and workshops. 3. R V Ramani, Chennai Rs 6,00,000 over one year For the production of a fi lm on Koothu-p-pattarai (KPP), a pioneering theatre group in Tamil Nadu. Video recordings of KPP’s activities over the last 15 years will be compiled, interpreted and edited to capture the evolution of a very particular syntax of experimental theatre, the tensions within the group and the changes it has witnessed. Fresh footage will also be shot to illustrate KPP’s present character and highlight viewpoints critical of the group’s artistic vision and accomplishments. 56 4. Abhishek Hazra, Bangalore Rs 5,53,000 over two years For research into the origin and development of science pedagogy in Bengali. Covering popular science articles in Bengali, ‘science jokes’ heard on college campuses, topics selected for doctoral dissertations and the presence of Russian textbooks in syllabi, the study will result in the crea- tion of three or four artist’s books, a series of short text-and-image narratives, and a website. 5. Bharath Murthy, Coimbatore Rs 3,02,400 over nine months For research into comic book culture in India towards developing a script/storyboard for a video or comic book. Th e relationship between the mediums of fi lm, painting and comic books will be explored through a combination of research, video documentation and the making of an art work. 6. Kamal Swaroop, Mumbai Rs 5,88,000 over ten months For the reconstruction of images, texts and video documentation generated during earlier IFA-funded workshops on Dadasaheb Phalke. Five short experimental fi lms, a two-hour documentary fi lm, and a multi-media website will be the outcomes of this project. 7. Shumona Goel, Mumbai Rs 5,26,455 over one year For the development of Family Tree, a fi lm installation for public space. Family Tree will explore the psychological consequences of migration, especially loneliness, melancholy and the emo- tional turbulence caused by life and work in alien surroundings. Th e installation will attempt to deform the concept of the family tree in order to consider twenty-fi rst century family lives, which are dynamic and constantly in motion.

  • Strategy Paper for the Sir Ratan Tata Trust, Mumbai
    HIGHER EDUCATION A Strategy Paper for the Sir Ratan Tata Trust, Mumbai PART ONE I. Background and Context for Review and Strategy Paper Following on the CSCS-Bangalore University conference on the Future of Higher Education assisted by the Trust (February 2006), CSCS was asked to prepare a Strategy Paper on higher education with a view to identifying new initiatives in the field. The Trust also requested CSCS to take another look at select past grants (endowment grants, research grants and fellowship grants) and help enlarge the scope of some of the suggestions made in the Krishna Kumar Report on the Education Portfolio commissioned by the Trust (2005). We understand that our Strategy Paper like the Report mentioned above is in preparation for formulating the Trust’s Strategy Plan 2011. Although the SRTT has been making grants since the early twentieth century, the systematization of grantmaking and the professionalization of the Trust was initiated in 1995 with the preparation of a Strategic Plan 2000 (Vijay Mahajan and Girish Godbole, 1995) which suggested five thematic areas including Education. The 2000 Strategy Plan reiterated the need to “do more for education in India” (19), but on the basis of discussions with experts in the field, it was recommended that the Trust focus on “primary education and vocational training…(in) rural areas” (20). The consultants’ belief was that Indian universities and professional institutes ought to raise money independently, starting with their alumni. While this recommendation would have led to a suspension of Higher Education grants, it is to the credit of the programme staff and the trustees that this category of grant-making has not only continued but also strengthened its focus.
