The somewhat lesser-known traditions of Indian painting are the so-called "folk" paintings dating back to a period that may be referred to as "timeless". These are living traditions, intrinsically linked with the regional historic-cultural settings from which they arise.
Indian tribal painting is the repository of traditional wisdom, knowledge, custom and heritage.
These paintings are as old as the Indian tribes - the children of nature. Their innermost feelings, beliefs and ritualistic activities were articulated in lines and colors. Themes and subjects of these tribal paintings range from religious to secular. From gods and Goddesses to cattle and crow - every little thing in life and imagination is depicted with immaculate precision. And this is what has made Indian tribal painting come out of anonymity to occupy a crowning position among international art paintings. |
