With an uninterrupted classical heritage, its craft forms were transformed into works of art - the village terracottas became the great bronzes, the wood carvings became splendid monuments in stone. Unlike other parts of India, Tamilnadu's geographic location in the far south protected it from extraneous influences and made for a certain insularity of culture which strengthened the styles from within. Contents: Introduction; Textiles; Bronzes; Metalware; Jewellery; Terracottas; Woodcrafts & Musical Instruments; Stone Craving; Thanjavur Paintings; Basketry & Fibre Craft; Festival Crafts & Folk Toys.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Photo Peshawar delves into the largely unexplored culture of photography in the Pakistani frontier city of Peshawar from the 1940s to the present day. Photography in Peshawar has historically and culturally found itself caught between the creative and conservative forces of both India and Afghanistan. Variously borne of British rule, the partition of India, war in neighbouring Afghanistan, the rise of the Taliban, local tribal law, a historical prohibition on image-making in Islam, the practice of purdah (the veiling of females in public), and the regional movie industry, there is a tangible stress between the practice of photography as it is pursued and the culture in which it is lived. With nearly one hundred and fifty photographs, each more stunning than the earlier, 'photography as craft is what this splendid volume examines - photography at the living, bleeding intersection of culture, war, frontier and fantasy, the sheer human inventiveness that results from a magnificent and tragic brew of technology and history'. AUTHORS: Sean Fole, an Irish ethnographer specialising in visual anthropology, works as a researcher on art projects. He first made it to Afghanistan in 2002. Foley has made ethnographic films on mortuary workers in India, tourism in Pakistan and Afghanistan, and cultural ecology in the south of Greece. Lukas Birk is an Austrian artist, storyteller, and conservator. His multi-disciplinary projects have been turned into films, chronicles, books, and exhibitions. A large part of Birk's work deals with archival material he collects through travel or while delving into his own background. 142 colour images Photo Peshawar delves into the largely unexplored culture of photography in the Pakistani frontier city of Peshawar from the 1940s to the current day.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. - A long-overdue volume on a five-decade long practice successfully creating monumental public works - Documents the work of Namita Singh work through five decades for a society in the making - Illustrated with photographs and drawings lending value to the breadth of the varied projects Having set up practice couple of decades after independence, Namita Singh belongs to the generation of architects who participated in the country's rapid development, providing a range of infrastructure projects for a society in the making, its institutions and cities. A Chandigarh-based practice, her firm has delivered a range of buildings, including educational institutes, offices, commercial projects, housing, heritage and restoration works, private homes and interiors across India. While much of her work is in tune with a contemporary modernism, Namita Singh has always drawn on local values and technologies for its generic expressions. A volume long overdue, the publication includes works that illustrate principles the architect uses to build and as well as those that are part of the stylistic consistency of the firm. Accompanying photographs and drawings tell a parallel story and lend value to the breadth of the varied projects presented and of a practice informed by inquiry.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. - Documents the special architectural element of carved and perforated screens in South Asia - Features lavishly-produced illustrations of more than 200 jalis across India - Traces examples from seventh-century examples to those designed by global contemporary artists - Comprehensive study of the exquisitely crafted screens from the Gujarat Sultanate to Mughal jalis, across Rajasthan and central India and, further south, to Deccan A jali is a perforated or latticed stone screen, with ornamental patterns that draw on the compositional rhythms of geometry and calligraphy. In the parts of India, western Asia and the Mediterranean where solar rays are strongest and brightest, ustads (or master artisans) were able to evolve an aesthetic language of light, giving it form and shape through lattices of stone and other materials. Jalis share a common aim of bringing filtered light into enclosed spaces, while providing protection and privacy. The expansive volume covers more than two hundred jalis across India, from the temple-inspired designs of the Gujarat Sultanate to imperial symbolism and Sufi allusions in Mughal jalis, the innovations and adaptations of jalis across Rajasthan and central India and, further south, calligraphy in pierced stone in the Deccan. With contributions by Mitchell Abdul Karim Crites, George Michell, and Ebba Koch, this lavishly illustrated publication reveals the poetry etched in these stone screens.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. - Chronicles for the first time Ganesh Haloi's decades-long artistic and pedagogic practice - Featuring nearly 250 works with previously unpublished folios of illustrations and sketches from artist's life - Documents Haloi's unique vocabulary of abstraction and landscape - Comprehensive study of Haloi's lifework deeply attentive always to the unfolding present Ganesh Haloi, born in Jamalpur, Mymensingh (now in Bangladesh), moved to Calcutta in 1950 after the Partition of India. Witness to India's resilient culture, its freedom and struggle for its secular modernism, Haloi is among the artists of the generation who have played a significant role in the shaping of Indian modern art. Haloi has cultivated a singular vocabulary of abstraction and landscape. This painterly world is textured with knowledge references that the artist is attuned to over decades -- from archeology, ancient architecture, art history to sacred philosophy and poetry. His works are exercises in bringing life to the genre of landscape painting through the assembly of disparate symbolic forms. With extensive essays by eminent art critics interspersed with folios of many previously unpublished works from throughout his life, this monograph documents Haloi's earth-toned abstract vocabulary that has drawn over time on a vast breadth of iconography, ideas, and movements. Published in association with Akar Prakar, Kolkata & New Delhi. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
