The Triumph of Modernism: India's Artists and the Avant-Garde 1922-1947. The achievements of modernism in art in India remain largely unremarked in the West. This substantial illustrated study examines its 1922-1947 development and its place in the multifaceted upheavals and changes in Indian society and its art scene in the final period of imperialism. Illustrations and text present the work of Indian artists, which demonstrate considerable interplay between Indian nationalism and Western modernism. With notes, bibliography and index.)
