The Power to Break Free WHERE THE ART COMES ALIVE first article THE POWER TO BREAK FREE Artist Jeevan Rajopadhyay, 61, worked with landscapes for a long time. So long that one fine day he decided he was tired of it. There came a time when he felt that the mountains and the trees in his paintings caused disturbances in his creative renderings. With the realization that people, after all, needed change, he started experimenting with other formats of creative expression. He soon found happiness in the fact that he could break free from the limitations of pre- determined shapes and boundaries of landscape paintings. jeevan rajopadhyay: Cont. on page 3 An Artist Who Paints for Himself CONTENTS My father was a music teacher at the Lalitkala Campus, the only college in Nepal to learn fine arts then. His artist friends from college loved the amateur paintings that I had made. The principal Kali Das Shrestha convinced my father that I should pursue arts in first person my higher education. I happily accepted, as it was my only real interest. CONTEMPORARY ART PG 2 By SC Suman & Ranju Yadav I soon completed my bachelor’s degree in fine arts. But I was clueless about how I would pursue a career in art. During those days, the paintings were sold at a very minimal price. There were no galleries or events where I could showcase my paintings. I had to UNVEILING PG 3 do something to make a living. I ended up working as an art designer and illustrator Gayatri by Udaya Charan Shrestha for a tourist magazine called Nepal Traveler. I lost touch with my practice of painting for ten long years. LIVING CULTURE PG 4 All this changed after I met legendary artist Lain Singh Bangdel in 1990 CE at an Udaaya: Doyens of Newa Culture exhibition held at the Nepal Art Council where he showcased three hundred of his paintings. Together with some friends, I enrolled in classes he ran at his house. Soon, I THE ART MARKET PG 5 began to feel I needed to leave everything else and focus on painting. Though it was an extremely difficult decision, I quit my job at the magazine. We studied with Mr. Bangdel Art for Sale until his final days in 2002 CE. Working with Mr. Bangdel was one of the best decisions of my life -- it gave me a career in what I love doing. MYTH BUSTER PG 6 Mr. Bangdel did contemporary, abstract and modern paintings. I did not understand Kumari Puja: Women on Top those art forms earlier. I loved to showcase landscapes in my paintings. I worked outdoors, not in the studio. Slowly, after joining Mr. Bangdel’s classes, I started to INTANGIBLE HERITAGE PG 7 understand and love the abstract form.

There is always a curiosity about “what next?” Though my landscape paintings were CURATORIAL PERSPECTIVE PG 8 good, and people liked them, I felt like I needed to move ahead with my paintings onto something other than landscapes. Nepalese Art: Long Story Short Note After Mr. Bangdel’s demise, I experimented with landscapes.

This tangential force is first article deadly to humans but friendly to the Tree of Life (earmarked as fecundity and vitality in Mithila artwork – depicted in the border). It generates no negative radial force on the animals, but exerts deforming axial pressure on the entire human race. However, the overall effect is the invisible force in the spiritual realm, in the form of the inverted Tree of Life that has its roots in the sky, dispensing wisdom and creative energy (reinforced by the icons of a burning lantern and the lighting of the earthen pots) through its branches turned towards the Earth. The inverted Tree of Life, called Ashvatta Tree in Chapter Ten of the Bhagavad Gita, promises divine benediction for the key (depicted on the top right) that will open the padlocks and finally help to get hold of the devilish virus, thereby putting an end to a life of inactivity, fear and HOPE AMIDST DESPAIR uncertainty.

The departure from his career as a landscape artist came after he enrolled as a student of legendary artist Lain Singh Bangdel. That landed him squarely in the arena of the abstract art format, which has become his mainstay till date. Says Jeevan, “when I start a new project with a blank canvas, I also start with an empty mind. I do not start out with a plan. After the initial few strokes of the brush, the canvas starts talking to me. And I talk back to it. The canvas guides me, and I follow its voice. The result has always been good.” In all his works, landscape or otherwise, the use of colors are premeditated. Each tone and hue is deliberate, and has its own meaning. The careful combination of colors create balance and depth, providing aesthetic appeal to the onlooker. “Color has dominated form in my artworks unveiling in recent years,” says Jeevan. “The perceived merit of an artwork of this type is determined by how bold and powerful the strokes are, and Goddess Gayatri, the conjunct form of deities Gayatri, Sabitri and Saraswati, is known as how much confidence is seen in the artist’s the mother of the Veda scriptures. Gayatri is the personification of primordial feminine choice of colors.” energy, which in today’s context characterizes the immeasurable and invaluable roles of This painting featured here, however, cannot women.

The mantra, which the form of an animal -- a shape that one essentially means “We meditate on that excellent light of the sun. May he illuminate our sees in real life.

  • Bhaktapur, Nepal's Cow Procession and the Improvisation of Tradition
    FORGING SPACE: BHAKTAPUR, NEPAL’S COW PROCESSION AND THE IMPROVISATION OF TRADITION By: GREGORY PRICE GRIEVE Grieve, Gregory P. ―Forging a Mandalic Space: Bhaktapur, Nepal‘s Cow Procession and the Improvisation of Tradition,‖ Numen 51 (2004): 468-512. Made available courtesy of Brill Academic Publishers: http://www.brill.nl/nu ***Note: Figures may be missing from this format of the document Abstract: In 1995, as part of Bhaktapur, Nepal‘s Cow Procession, the new suburban neighborhood of Suryavinayak celebrated a ―forged‖ goat sacrifice. Forged religious practices seem enigmatic if one assumes that traditional practice consists only of the blind imitation of timeless structure. Yet, the sacrifice was not mechanical repetition; it could not be, because it was the first and only time it was celebrated. Rather, the religious performance was a conscious manipulation of available ―traditional‖ cultural logics that were strategically utilized during the Cow Procession‘s loose carnivalesque atmosphere to solve a contemporary problem—what can one do when one lives beyond the borders of religiously organized cities such as Bhaktapur? This paper argues that the ―forged‖ sacrifice was a means for this new neighborhood to operate together and improvise new mandalic space beyond the city‘s traditional cultic territory. Article: [E]very field anthropologist knows that no performance of a rite, however rigidly prescribed, is exactly the same as another performance.... Variable components make flexible the basic core of most rituals. ~Tambiah 1979:115 In Bhaktapur, Nepal around 5.30 P.M. on August 19, 1995, a castrated male goat was sacrificed to Suryavinayak, the local form of the god Ganesha.1 As part of the city‘s Cow Procession (nb.
