Goel: Critical Writings on Art, 1957-1998","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe mapping of the history and trajectory of Indian modern art is a project begun only in recent years and included in it is the recovery of lesser known names and moments from under the shadow of a few dominant ones. Within it, its conscience keeper--art criticism--has borne greater neglect and obscurity. One such voice, heard with considerable attention in its time, was that of the Delhi-based art critic K. B. Goel (1930-2018). Active from the late 1950s to the '90s, his career broadly coincided with the modernist period. Active mainly as a reviewer, Goel also wrote lengthy reflective assessments, and his art writings stand out for an interpretative and often theory-based approach that is quite unique to Indian art criticism. Writing on some of the most definitive artists, movements, and styles of twentieth-century Indian art, he bears the distinction of successfully transitioning from his modernist training to theorize on the earliest postmodern developments in Indian art, such as installation art. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis annotated volume seeks to bring together Goel's major writings, accompanied by a critical introduction that draws attention to his frameworks, concerns, and methodologies. It has a foreword by the eminent art critic Geeta Kapur. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePublished in association with Sher-Gil Sundaram Arts Foundation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Shruti Parthasarathy\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 8193732995\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9788193732991\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Tulika Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/15\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 480\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.70h x 6.80w x 1.40d","brand":"Shruti Parthasarathy","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46372485267711,"sku":"9788193732991","price":65.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_efefac82-0bd2-4a3a-9413-065e4e873588.jpg?v=1732726075","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/kb-goel-shruti-parthasarathy-9788193732991","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
