Review of Literature REVIEW OF LITERATURE 1. Chakrabarti J & Kumar R S (1995) – “The Shanti Niketan Murals”, The monograph is an effort to bring murals before a wider public and to describe their background. It contains a general survey of the murals, detailed description of the major works and their historical background, and brief discussions on technique and themes. It has reproductions in black and white colour, a catalogue of works, and a bibliography. Altogether this book promises to be a useful source book on the early efforts in Shantiniketan to relate art and environment, focusing especially on the pioneering works by Nandalal Bose and BinodBehari Mukherjee. 2. Datta A & Choudhary J (1996)- “Time’s Harvest: A Cycle of Poems and Drawings Based on the Ramayana and the Mahabharata”, Aim of this book is to explore The Ramayana and the Mahabharata, with their multi-textured tapestry of personalities, issues, values, relationships and tales.. Time’s Harvest is a part of a colourful tradition. Different characters from the epics come alive in all their human frailty and complexity in the pages of this book. The artist spent a long time in the world of the poems, getting to know them well before he began to work on his part of the collaboration. The result is a suite of visuals which combine with the words to create a poetry uniquely their own. 3. VatsyayanK (1997) – “The Square and the Circle of the Indian Arts”, The Square and the Circle of the Indian Arts is a major contribution in Indian art history. More than a book on the theories of arts, it has far-reaching implications for the way one thinks about the future of ideology and art history. It provides a model to be emulated for inter-disciplinary research, not only between the arts but also the sciences and the arts. The book begins by re-examining the imagery of the Vedas and the Upanishads, highlighting some aspects of early speculative thought which influenced the enunciation of aesthetic theories, particularly of Bharat in the Natyashastra. 4. SubramanyamK G (2001)- “Sketches, Scribes, Drawings”, This volume of sketches, scribbles, drawings spans the work of the last 30 years, with the bulk of the material coming from the period between 1980 and the present. A composite of line, scratches, smears, swabs and dots that recreates an object, it learns its rhythm in the process and becomes an object by itself. The artist sometimes keeps it to the essentials; at other times he dresses it up and makes it play a role. Set sail a narrative. And take one to new shores of experience. This uncovers new images. So this ceaseless doodling; the unravelling of what is, then it’s reknitting into novel composites. 5. Thakurta T G (2001) – “In Her Own Right: Remembering the Artist KarunaShaha”, This book on KarunaShaha not only includes her biography but also insisted on claiming professional space in her own right. She exhibited regularly, continuing with her drawing, sketching and painting right till the end of her life. She has written widely on popular and modern art practices in India and is now completing a book on art institutions in colonial and post-colonial India. 6. Dalmia Y (2001) – “The Making of Modern Indian Art: The Progressives”, Leading Indian artists like Husain Souza and Raza were once totally unknown and without resources. This is the story of their struggles, their achievements, and their ultimate success. This volume is an account not only of their life and works but also of modern Indian art and the course it has taken since its origins in the nineteenth century. 7. Mago P N (2001) -“Contemporary Art in India” A Perspective” The idea behind this work is to unfold the origin and development of contemporary Indian art. Covering the last 150 years and with nearly 300 illustrations, the book focuses on the different artistic and stylistic genres and art movements which have enriched. 8. Sheikh G M &Sinha G (2002) –“The Art of Gulam Mohammad Sheikh”, The central focus of this book is to explore the concepts of art work. This book contains especially the catalogue of works of Gulam Mohammed Sheikh, Indian painter. It also includes a brief biographical sketch of the artist. 9. Dalmia Y (2002) –“Contemporary Indian Art: Other Realities”,This volume provides a much-needed perspective on contemporary Indian art, offering a dynamic rather than a static way of approaching the subject. Instead of a mere chronicling of modes and elucidation of styles of art which are now well known, the essays, written by scholars, deal with questions which, though often asked, remain open-ended. Within the broad conceptual framework of each essay, the works of individual artists are discussed. Much of the debate centres on the contentious subject of modernism in Indian art, in its Eurocentric, Asian, contextual, or multicultural form. 10. Sen S (2002) - “AbanindraNath Tagore: On an Indian Canvas (HB)” This book explore the work of the artist.He drew the curved thatched huts of rural Bengal and the grey, over laden sky of the monsoons. Just as his landscapes echoed the moods of this land, his portraits captured the essence of a character. Painter, set designer, illustrator and fabulist, Abanindranath Tagore led the renaissance in Indian art by dedicating his life to the revival of the traditions of ancient Indian painting. 11. Centre of International Modern Art (Calcutta, India), Lalit Kala Academy (2003)-“Art of Bengal: A Vision Defined”, This book is based on an exhibition organized by Centre of International Modern Art, Kolkata, in association with Lalit Kala Academy, New Delhi, held in New Delhi; includes reproductions of the works exhibited. 12. Kumar R S & Subramanyam K G (2003) – “ K G Subramanyam: A Retrospective” This Retrospective on K.G. Subramanyam not only includes his more recent work but also, with over three hundred and fifty works, takes a more comprehensive and balanced overview of his composition including his paintings, terracotta reliefs, reverse paintings on glass and acrylic, linocuts, lithographs, etching, silk screens, drawings, studies, children books, toys and saras-paintings on terracotta platters-and the photographs of murals. 13. Tagore R N & Shergill A (2004) –“RabindraNath Tagore, Amrita ShergillJamini Roy: 10 September 2004”, This book contains the critical notes and reproduction of exhibited art of great painters Rabindranath Tagore, Amrita Sher-Gil, and Jamini Roy. 14. Tuli N (2004) –“Indian Contemporary Art: Books, Paintings & Sculpture (Volume 4)”, This book contains a catalogue for an art auction by Osian's connoisseurs of art. The choice of illustrations is wide and truly testifies the richness and diversity of the subject and a bibliography provides useful reference material. 15. TuliN (2005) -“Indian Contemporary Art: Books, Paintings & Sculpture”The fourth publication of the book offers in Osian's Masterpieces & Museum Quality Series, features 89 artists, bringing together for the connoisseur and collector an extensive and increasingly rare array of high quality works in painting and for the first time in sculpture. 16. Tagore R N & Kumar R S (2005) –“My Pictures: A Collection of Paintings” The book explores his aesthetic self, yearning to turn discord into harmony and death into renewal. And we see the emergence of rhythmic contours and characters in his work. Tagore took to painting only in his later life in the 1920s when he was already a name to reckon with in the world of literature. Although entirely untrained, he emerged as a major artist in the Indian art scene with his thought-provoking innovations. The darkness in many of his paintings is not the darkness of the night. His self-portraits reflect a deeper psychological need that of a creative person always in search of self. 17. Jhaveri A (2005) – “A Guide to 101 Modern and Contemporary Indian Artists”, This book concisely introduces 101 artists - painters, sculptors, photographers, and new media artists. The variety of ideas and forms in contemporary Indian art are presented here and illustrated with an extraordinary gathering of images. The essays are both authoritative and accessible, addressing each artist's primary concerns and methods. They also include important biographical information and vivid descriptions of selected pieces. 18. Sinha G & Khanna K (2005) - “Krishan Khanna: The Embrace of Love”, This book is in the series of contemporary Indian artists. KrishanKhanna speaks of his drawing as an intuitive process. His paintings and drawings emerge as narratives in which the artist plays out his concerns, as well as the shifting and unfolding theatre of human relationships effectively. 19. Jhaveri A (2005) – “A Guide to 101 Modern and Contemporary Indian Artists” This book concisely introduces 101 artists - painters, sculptors, photographers, and new media artists.

Mukherjee B B(2006)-“Chitrakar: The Artist”, This book offers a comprehensive introduction and autobiographical reminiscences of a great Indian painter, BinodBehari Mukherjee. This book includes his range of wide thinking and aesthetic philosophy towards life. 21.

The South Asian art The South Asian art market boom between 2004 and 2008 market needs more champions like this, and with South Asian was exciting, because it made this regional art market gain economies being among the fastest growing in the world, the proper international attention for the first time, and laid the requisite private wealth would appear available to support it. foundation for much of the contemporary gallery, art fair and I am very excited to publish this report after 10 years of auction infrastructure we see today.

Probably there is not enough space to measure their sacrifices. However, we cannot close our eyes to those people who have made our country proud by excelling in their own fields and bringing us international recognition. Bharat Ratna is the highest civilian award, given for exceptional service towards advancement of Art, Literature and Science, and in recognition of Public Service of the highest order. It is also not mandatory that Bharat Ratna be awarded every year. · The original specifications for the award called for a circular gold medal, 35 mm in diameter, with the sun and the Hindi legend "Bharat Ratna" above and a floral wreath below. The reverse was to carry the state emblem and motto. It was to be worn around the neck from a white ribbon. This design was altered after a year. · The provision of Bharat Ratna was introduced in 1954. The first ever Indian to receive this award was the famous scientist, Chandrasekhara Venkata Raman.
