This book offers select face-to-face encounters with imaginative minds of 20th century Indian visual art. Culled from the author's 25 years as a cultural journalist, these are voices from painting, sculpture, design, and photography. Between these covers, art comes to life in vivid shades, through its articulate creators. Meet R.K. Laxman as a painter of crows. Discover M.F. Husain in focus as a photographer. Steep yourself in the lyricism of Nilima Sheikh's paintings, and debate feminist viewpoints with Rekha Rodwittiya. Through these interviews and many more that have weathered the test of time, you'll find yourself in the thick of the pulsing Indian art scene today.
