Contemporary Art North India charts the trajectory of Modernism in the region, tracing aesthetic influences and history leading up to its contemporary art. The book’s editorial strategy focuses specially on the unique practices of the various artists who live and work in North India, and their aesthetic predecessors, through profiles as opposed to overarching histories that treat oeuvres for their overlaps. This particular approach allows for diversity, bringing attention to individual aesthetics, straying away from tendencies to build a singular narrative for an expansive, though culturally aligned region.
