Major Events Showcasing Art and Culture from Artistes of India in France in 2011 Major Events showcasing art and culture from artistes of India in France in 2011. Indian art and culture is being highlighted in France this year between February and December through several major events organized by French institutions. 1.

Laurent Brégeat reveals the history of the artists' beginnings, their challenges and landmarks, and highlights their lives, referring friends and events, thoughts and anecdotes, lessons and influences. Underpinned by interviews with art critics, collectors and artists, supported by unpublished documents, these films - drawing together the historical and sociological context of these great Indian artists of the post-independence era and showing the journey of a hinge generation - are essential for the history of Indian and international art.

  • Artists' Statement on Growing Political and Religious Intolerance
    ISSN (Online) - 2349-8846 Artists' Statement on Growing Political and Religious Intolerance SAHMAT Vol. 50, Issue No. 44, 31 Oct, 2015 The artist community of India stands in firm solidarity with the actions of our writers who have relinquished awards and positions, and spoken up in protest against the alarming rise of intolerance in the country. We condemn and mourn the murders of MM Kalburgi, Narendra Dabholkar and Govind Pansare, rationalists and free thinkers whose voices have been silenced by rightwing dogmatists but whose “presence” must ignite our resistance to the conditions of hate being generated around us. The artist community of India stands in firm solidarity with the actions of our writers who have relinquished awards and positions, and spoken up in protest against the alarming rise of intolerance in the country. We condemn and mourn the murders of MM Kalburgi, Narendra Dabholkar and Govind Pansare, rationalists and free thinkers whose voices have been silenced by rightwing dogmatists but whose “presence” must ignite our resistance to the conditions of hate being generated around us. We will never forget the battle we fought for our pre-eminent artist MF Husain who was hounded out of the country and died in exile. We remember the rightwing invasion and dismantling of freedoms in one of the country’s best known art schools in Baroda. We witness the present government’s appointment of grossly unqualified persons to the FTII Society and its disregard of the ongoing strike by the students of this leading Institute. We see a writer like Perumal Murugan being intimidated into declaring his death as a writer, a matter of dire shame in any society.

    The Location of Culture ‘The work being done in my field, African and African-American Studies, is unimaginably richer because of Homi Bhabha’s stunning contribution to literary, historical, and cultural studies. The breadth and depth of his analysis, and the razor precision of his writing, push us all to be better, more innovative scholars, and I thank him for it.’ Henry Louis Gates, JR ‘The Location of Culture has been extraordinarily fertile for work in a variety of fields: literature, geography, architecture, politics among them. Homi Bhabha is at once radical and subtle in his method of argument and his insights have been fundamental to the flourishing of post-colonial studies.’ Gillian Beer, University of Cambridge ‘The Location of Culture is an exuberantly intelligent voyage of dis- covery and disorientation. Supple, subtle, and unafraid, its power lies in its remarkable openness to all that is challenging and unsettling in the contemporary world.’ Stephen Greenblatt, Harvard University ‘Bhabha is that rare thing, a reader of enormous subtlety and wit, a theorist of uncommon power. His work is a landmark in the exchange between ages, genres and cultures; the colonial, post-colonial, mod- ernist and postmodern.’ Edward Said ‘Homi Bhabha is one of that small group occupying the front ranks of literary and cultural theoretical thought. Any serious discussion of post-colonial/postmodern scholarship is inconceivable without refer- encing Mr Bhabha.’ Toni Morrison '\ L £ ~ () ~~ ct:o S Qrn r- • m • () ~ CI) ( m V ..q S 5 \ Routledge Classics contains the very best of Routledge publishing over the past century or so, books that have, by popular consent, become established as classics in their field.

  • Engineering the Art of Anish Kapoor
    ENGINEERING THE ART OF ANISH KAPOOR ESSAY BY CHRISTOPHER HORNZEE‐ JONES (Published with permission by the Solomon Guggenheim Museum New York) Design and engineering firm Aerotrope’s work on Anish Kapoor’s Deutsche Guggenheim commission is the latest in a series of close collaborations with the artist that began almost ten years ago. Over this period, we have contributed our technical expertise to the realization of his increasingly ambitious artworks in both public spaces and galleries, working with a diversity of materials from steel and wax to water and air, each of which has presented specific possibilities and challenges. I have been drawn to working with artists due to my long‐standing passion for creativity that spans the arts, design, engineering, and science. In our work outside of the art world, our role is often to evolve new designs and technology in the fields of renewable energy and experimental low‐energy vehicles. We see our work with artists as an integrated and enriching part of our practice, not as an interesting sideline to “real” work. The process of critically reexamining our received assumptions of what is possible and then formulating bold new expressions of vision is as vital to making compelling artworks as it is to adapting our society to the challenges of climate change and the limits of global resources. During each project with Kapoor, we may go through periods of relatively independent parallel work, which are linked by sessions of closely interactive review. Our objective, especially during the initial phase of realizing a new work, is to keep the creative options as open as possible rather than to let premature decision making, often driven by technical or production concerns, constrain or deflect Kapoor’s artistic judgments.
