  • Lupadakhe : unknown master sculptors of ancient India
    Kannal, Deepak H. ; Gupta, Kanika
    India has a great tradition in aesthetic theorization but surprisingly it has totally ignored the possibilities of critiquing a specific aesthetic manifestation. Indian aesthetic tradition does not ... reveal a single occurrence of any theoretical or critical analysis of a particular creation : literary, performative or visual. Since value judgment was never an agenda of the aesthetic contextualization in this tradition, it never attempted to identify the peaks of creativity and excellence. The proposed publication gives a brief introduction of the artists' community and art activity in ancient India and the most significant masterpieces of the past. In the core chapter, employing the methods of intrinsic studies, mainly focusing on the stylistic typologies and morphological developments, we have tried to identify a number of masters of Indian sculpture from different eras and sculptural lineages. We presume that it has not been attempted earlier in Indian art historical writing. The text also attempts to draw attention to the glyptic aesthetics of the spatial creations in India. The volume follows the methodology of intrinsic i.e. formal and stylistic studies of Indian sculpture. Heinrich Wolfflin is one of the significant scholars who pioneered this methodology. Though, this is the most appropriate methodology for studies in Indian sculpture, in absence of adequate recorded information, it has not been exploited enough in India. The present volume, though rooted in the art historical discipline tries to address the art lovers from the other disciplines also hopefully enriching their understanding of Indian sculpture and plastic aesthetics.
