" Handcrafted Indian textiles, steeped in tradition, are the living heritage of the glory of India. The decade spanning 1980-1990 witnessed a renaissance in the promotion and revival of techniques, some of which were in danger of becoming extinct. Warps and wefts underwent a transformation, with assorted weaves being combined to produce 'new from the old'. "The hundred and forty outstanding textiles represented in this book, were selected from fifteen hundred especially commissioned from master weavers and craftsmen all over the country during the same decade. Displayed at the Visvakarma series of exhibitions, their wide-ranging vocabulary of design, technical skill and aesthetic brilliance brook no rivalry. " Featured under pigment-painted, dye-painted, printed and woven techniques, the book showcases various regions of production. The historical legacy, source of inspiration, achievements and shortcomings of each category are summed up with an informal, though analytical discussion. "Written and edited by renowned names in textile design, this book is, indeed, a treasure for both the textile aficionado and designer." (jacket).

Couverture rigide. Condition: Neuf. Dust Jacket Condition: Comme neuf. Edition originale. L'artisanat textile indien, immergé dans la tradition, est l'héritage vivant d'un passé glorieux. Les années quatre-vingts ont assisté à la renaissance de techniques anciennes en passe de tomber dans l'oubli. Une promotion exceptionnelle des textiles du sous-continent s'ensuivit, au plan local et international. Chaînes et trames subirent une transformation ; elles s'assortirent de modes nouveaux de tissage, et cette hybridation réussit à " faire du neuf avec de l'ancien ". Les cent quarante spécimens textiles exceptionnels représentés dans ce livre ont été sélectionnés sur un ensemble de mille cinq cent, commandés expressément auprès de maîtres tisserands et artisans du pays tout entier au cours de la même décennie. Ces textiles, présentés à l'occasion des expositions Visvakarma, ont par leur vaste vocabulaire iconographique, leur technicité splendide et leur très grande beauté aucun précédent et aucun rival contemporain. Leur classification en fonction de la technique utilisée (peinture au pigment, peinture au colorant, impressions et tissages) recoupe celle des différentes régions productrices d'artisanat textile. L'héritage historique, les sources d'inspirations, les accomplissements et les insuccès de chaque catégorie sont résumés au fil de " conversations " analytiques, menées à bâtons rompus. Les auteurs sont des sommités de la technologie textile aussi ce livre sera-t-il une mine d'or, pour le connaisseur comme pour le professionnel.
