  • Symbolism of Woman and Tree Motif in Ancient Indian Sculptural Art with Special Reference to Yaksi Figures
    International Journal of Applied Social Science RESEARCH PAPER Volume 6 (1), January (2019) : 160-165 ISSN : 2394-1405 Received : 17.11.2018; Revised : 02.12.2018; Accepted : 18.12.2018 Symbolism of Woman and Tree Motif in Ancient Indian Sculptural Art with Special Reference to Yaksi Figures ADITI JAIN Assistant Professor P.G. Department of Fine Arts, BBK DAV College for Women, Amritsar (Punjab) India ABSTRACT Tree worship has always been the earliest and the most prevalent form of religion since ages. Through the worship of nature and trees it became possible for man to approach and believe in god. In India tree worship was common even in the third or fourth millennium B.C. Among the seals of Mohenjo-daro dating from the third or fourth millennium B.C., is one depicting a stylized pipal tree with two heads of unicorns emerging from its stem which proves that tree worship was already being followed even before the rise of Buddhism. The trees were regarded as beneficent devatas because they were the only friends of man is case of any environmental danger. Buddhism adopted the cult of tree worship from the older religions which prevailed in the country. The particular trees which are sal, asoka and plaksha. Gautama achieved enlightenment under a pipal tree which was hence forth called the Bodhi tree, and he died in a grove of sal trees. It was on account of these associations with the Buddha that the trees were regarded as sacred by the Indians. The most important concept of tree worship also reminds us of the worship of a woman especially yaksi or queen Mahamaya associated with the birth of Bodhisattava in a sal grove while holding a branch of sal tree.

  • Contextual Modernism’ in the Silk Paintings of Maniklal Banerjee
    The Chitrolekha Journal on Art and Design (E-ISSN 2456-978X), Vol. 1, No. 2, 2017 DOI: https://dx.doi.org/10.21659/cjad.12.v1n205 PDF URL: www.chitrolekha.com/ns/v1n2/v1n205.pdf The ‘Contextual Modernism’ in the Silk Paintings of Maniklal Banerjee Ashmita Mukherjee Research Scholar, Jadavpur University. Email: [email protected] Abstract The paper tries to analyze the silk paintings of Maniklal Banerjee (1917-2002) who was greatly influenced by the artists of the so-called Bengal school of art. The school started by Abanindranath Tagore did not remain confined to its own time and space, but grew into dynamic new modernisms over a span of nearly a century. Art historian Sivakumar invoked a number of artists of Santiniketan and called it a “contextual modernism”. The paper tries to re-read the spirit of Santiniketan artists on the more recent and un- researched art of Maniklal Banerjee- who contextualized in his own way the Bengal ‘school’ that had by now turned into a ‘movement’. The spirit of freedom runs at the core of this movement and finds a new language in the late twentieth century artist’s renderings of daily life and Puranic narrations. Keywords: Bengal School, Maniklal Banerjee, Abanindranath Tagore, Nandalal Bose, Indian art, Puranic art, aesthetics Introduction: Maniklal Banerjee (1917-2002) Barely remembered beyond textbooks of art schools, Maniklal Banerjee was one of the first innovators of the technique of using water-color on silk in India. In order to engage in any critical discussion on his works, it is ironical that this painter- a recipient of the prestigious Abanindra Puraskar in 1999- needs an introduction (Plate 1 and 2).

  • 247 Medieval Devanganas : Their Individual Motif

NUPURAPADIKA-SANGITAVADINI 248 CHAPTER - VI DEVANGANA SCULPTURE IMAGE STUDY PART - II : VI. 1 POST GUPTA AND MEDIEVAL DEVANGANAS : THEIR INDIVIDUAL MOTIF ANALYSIS 13 The overlapping of meaning in the imageries of Salabhanjika, nadi devis, nayika-kutilaka group, mithunas, aquatic motifs, varuna etc.j implicit in their representation on religious architecture now lead us to the study of individual devangana imageries. In doing so our attention will focus on their varied representations and the contexts in which they have been placed on temple architecture. The aquatic connection emerges as major connecting link between the graceful imageries of celestial womeni often interpreted by scholars as representations of nayikas in stages of love and exhibiting their charms. Often looked at by scholars as apsaras, those infamous alluring 1 snarelike characters of the puranas, who when depicted on the temples^ perform their graceful charms on the spectators. The antithesis between woman and wisdom, sorrow lurking behind the sensual; are observed by some as the reasons why the so called apsaras are carved in profusion on the temple walls. This does not appear convincing. The intention with which I have built up the base, bridging the Salabhanjika, yaksini, nadidevis and apsaras, is to unravel the more chthonfc level of meaning which can be traced back to the Vedic sources. The presence of the woman is ever auspicious and protective, her nourishing aspect and the sensual aspect fuse together or imply fertility, and these concepts have remained in the Indian human psyche 249 perenninally, It is only the contemporary representation which changes the form and hence,? Khajuraho devanganas appear over sensuous than Jaga"t or Matnura yaksis.

  • Post Mauryan Trends in Indian Art and Architecture (Indian Culture Series – NCERT)
    Post Mauryan Trends in Indian Art and Architecture (Indian Culture Series – NCERT) In this article, we are dealing with the trends in the post-Mauryan art and architecture as a part of the Indian Culture series based on the NCERT textbook ‘An Introduction to Indian Art’- Part 1. We have already discussed the arts of the Mauryan period in the previous article. This post gives a detailed description about the Post-Mauryan Schools of Art and Architecture such as Gandhara, Mathura, Amaravati, etc. and also the cave traditions that existed during the period. This post also deals with some of the important architectural sites such as Sanchi, Ajanta, Ellora, etc. Take the Clear IAS Exam UPSC prelims mock test on Indian culture. You not only will learn the important facts related to Indian culture, but will also start to love the subject! Indian Architecture after the Mauryan Period From the second century BCE onwards, various rulers established their control over the vast Mauryan Empire: the Shungas, Kanvas, Kushanas and Guptas in the north and parts of central India; the Satavahanas, Ikshavakus, Abhiras, Vatakas in southern and western India. The period also marked the rise of the main Brahmanical sects such as the Vaishnavas and Shaivas. Places where important sculptures are seen Some of the finest sculptures of this period are found at Vidisha, Barhut (M.P), Bodhgaya (Bihar), Jaggaypetta (Andhra Pradesh), Mathura (UP), Khandagiri-Udayagiri (Odisha), Bhaja near Pune (Maharashtra). Barhut Barhut sculptures are tall like the images of Yaksha and Yakshini in the Mauryan period. Modelling of the sculpture volume is in low relief maintaining linearity.

  • The Nandalal—Gandhi—Rabindranath Connection
    The Nandalal—Gandhi—Rabindranath Connection Nandalal Bose’s ideas on art and art education were influenced to a large extent by the ideas of two of his distinguished contemporaries—Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi and Rabindranath Tagore. Gandhi is known in India today as the father of the nation as he managed to awaken almost single-handedly, the aspirations of the Indian people on a wide scale and organize them into a formidable political force. He had captured their attention even before he entered the country’s political scene by his successful use of satyagraha (non-violent political action) in South Africa to secure for its coloured people some measure of social justice from its white rulers. This was so unprecedented that it became the talk of the whole world. Gandhi moved to India in 1915; and in the next three decades used the same agitational strategy to emancipate the country from colonial rule. Nandalal was an involved witness of this process and soon became one of his great admirers. He became particularly so when Gandhi’s action programme widened its purview to include the economic independence of India and the strengthening of its wide-spread artisan traditions to achieve this. This focus on the artisan traditions had a special appeal for Nandalal. Even in his childhood years the artisan’s workshops in his home town had a great attraction for him; he often went there to watch the workers—potters, woodworkers, metal smiths, scroll-painters—ply their trades with seemingly effortless skill with open-eyed fascination. It was this fascination that fed his desire to become an artist when he grew up.

Our Time for a Future Caring, a group exhibition curated by Roobina Karode, Director and Chief Curator at the Kiran Nadar Museum of Art, critically engages with the figure and philosophies of Mahatma Gandhi, reflecting on his enduring impact and the contemporary relevance of his ideals. Gandhi acts as focal point for different artistic interpretations, delving into broader issues of India’s history and nationhood, as well more conceptual investigations into notions of freedom, nonviolence, action and agency. The exhibition forms part of India’s celebrations of ‘150 years of Gandhi’ and showcases artworks spanning from the twentieth century to the present day by Nandalal Bose, MF Husain, Atul Dodiya, Jitish Kallat, Ashim Purkayastha, Shakuntala Kulkarni, Rummana Hussain and GR Iranna. A landmark partnership between India’s public and private sectors has enabled India’s second national participation at the Biennale Arte 2019. The Pavilion was organized by the India Ministry of Culture with the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII).
