Description

 

Around the time of Independence, emerged a group of artists who were to lead the way for Indian art in the decades to come. This group, comprising artists such as M.F. Husain, S.H. Raza, F.N. Souza, and K.H. Ara have given Indian art a new direction, infusing it with their distinctive styles and initiating the modernist movement in India. This pioneering book is an authentic portrayal of the formative years of modern Indian art, when its parameters were being established. Carefully researched and richly illustrated, this magnificent book by Yashodhara Dalmia presents a detailed account of the emergence of what is today known as modern Indian art.
