Contemporary Indian Art and its Development
The Contemporary Indian Art started off in the early 20th century. This sort of a renaissance took place under the leadership of the famous Tagore family. Some of the popular contemporary artists of the period were mostly inclined towards exploiting the great Indian heritage. The theme of their painting was mostly based on the great Indian epics, murals of Ajanta and Ellora, Mughal and Rajput, miniature paintings and so on
With the advent of the British, the European painting style also crawled into India and so came along the concept of art gallery. The Indian art gallery of those times mostly comprised the works from the painters’ group who focused on the horrors and pains of the World Wars and the resulted disillusion.
Some also expressed the tragedies of Indian partition through paintings. This piece of work proved to be a turning point in the Indian art scenario. Painters subsequently evolved their independent style setting aside all prejudices. This also influenced the thriving of innovative ideas which were displayed by the refreshing new art works. This was a predecessor of the times to come.
Every Indian Art Gallery today showcases traditional as well as the contemporary Indian art, some of which are vigorous and audacious sort of painting yet have sophistication and grace. They are a manifestation of the myriad art forms.
The pioneers in the contemporary Indian Art prior Independence was Abanindranath Tagore. He incorporated Japanese and Chinese styles into his paintings which were shortly followed by several other Indian painters, hence developing the contemporary style. Some of the renowned Indian painters prior Indian Independence were Rabindranath Tagore, Jamini Roy, Amrita Shergill, A.K. Haldar, Samarendranath Gupta, Nandlal Bose and Raja Ravi Verma.
The contemporary Indian art has a unique entity which reflects the intuitive and emotions of Indian culture. This has been employed with the soft touch of the Indian elegance.
Some popular contemporary Indian artists are Satish Gujral, Maqbool Fida Hussian, Deepak Shinde, Laxman Shreshtha, Sanjay Bhattacharya, S.H. Raza, N.S. Bendre, Jatin Das, Prabhakar Barwe and Anjolie Ela Menon. The Indian Art gallery showcases the art works of most of these eminent artists and each show is likely to attract innumerable art lovers.
The art at the break of the 21st century is a lot varied and has some never before seen aspect. From adorning the houses of elitist businessmen and royal families, the art has entered the houses of the middle-class buyers and today it is also travelling from the domestic market to offshore fetching exorbitant prices.
As the contemporary artists of India continue drawing inspiration from numerous sources and styles, yet it still retains the distinct “Indianness”. With the evolution of newer styles and never seen before styles the contemporary Indian art is reaching new heights.
