  • Artsand Philanthropy
    Arts and Philanthropy Art is a universal language where visual expression evokes raw emotions and is thus an effective medium of conveying the very important message of peace “and harmony. Indeed, powerful images of paintings can leave an everlasting impact on peoples’ minds. Unlike words which are spoken, heard and sometimes forgotten, art on canvas stays forever and so does the message it conveys. — Satish Kumar Modi at the Inaugural Ceremony of the UNESCO Global Forum on the ‘Power of Peace’ ”at Bali, Indonesia. (cover image) — ‘Golden Life’, oil on canvas by Deepak Kumar, student of Final Year, Fine Art, IIFA Inspired by Lord Buddha’s life and teachings, the artist has tried to convey the fact that thoughts based on truthfulness, love and compassion — the ‘golden thoughts’— enable a person to lead a life full of peace, contentment and happiness — a ‘golden life’.

    The Indian Emergency 231 THE INDIAN EMERGENCY 9 Aesthetics of State Control A confirmed plagiarist speaks of some of the FFC’s significant produc- tions as third-rate copies of third-rate foreign films. A globe-trotting socialite whose sole claim to be a critic is her access to people and places (and who ecstacizes over Manoj Kumar’s Shor) aids the big sharks by her learned associations. A self-confessed amateur, applau- ded for his bold themes, speaks of films as ‘formal exercises’ when they are not in his own blundering idiom. Others disguise their con- cern for financial return (on both ‘public’ and ‘private’ money!) in terms of mass communication. Yet another old hand at bringing humanism to the box office in outrageous costumes advises the gov- ernment to nationalize cinema before it finances films which make an attempt at speaking a radical language. Utopian ideas always subvert their own declared purpose. Even in the unlikely event of nationalization, given the honesty of our bureaucrats and the social- ism of our system, one can visualize what new monsters will emerge. Some of these suggestions and comments may, indeed, be well inten- tioned, but it is becoming increasingly difficult to sift out the cinema’s enemies from its friends. – Kumar Shahani (1974) 1 Most of these stories featured the then Information and Broadcasting Minister, Vidya Charan Shukla. D.R. Mankekar The June 1975 declaration by Indira Gandhi’s government of a ‘grave and Kamala Mankekar (1977: 81) write: ‘With the vulnerable film emergency [whereby] the security of India . threatened by exter- industry [V.C.] Shukla played ducks and drakes.
