George de Forest Brush (1854-1941) created an important series of paintings of American Indians that was much celebrated in his time but has been seen rarely since. Brush combined extraordinary technical skills acquired during several years of training in the studio of Jean-Léon Gérôme with first-hand experience of living among the Arapahoe, Shoshone, and Crow Indians in Wyoming and Montana. Completed during the 1880s, many of these works were quickly acquired by major American collectors and have remained in private hands through several generations. This beautiful book, the first scholarly study of Brush's Indian paintings, features detailed discussions of individual paintings, interpretative essays exploring the historical and cultural context in which the paintings were produced, a comprehensive chronology, and lavish colour reproductions of numerous paintings not shown publicly since the nineteenth century.After more than six years of study in Paris during the 1870s, Brush travelled to Wyoming to join his brother in a ranching venture. Fascinated by the native people he met, he quickly undertook life studies of Indians living on the Wind River and Crow reservations. Later, when he returned east, he produced a number of studio paintings in which the Indian served as metaphor. New research reveals that these stunningly beautiful paintings of American Indians are also, surprisingly, complex meditations on the advent of modernism.

"For thousands of years, the Indian sub-continent has been the battleground of conquerors and the birthplace of great religions, so it is hardly surprisig that its arts have been uniquely varied and moving. Indian sculpture embraces severe portraits of the Buddha, 'the Compassionate One', along with female spirits of disconcerting voluptuousness and wonderfully poised, multi-limbed figures of gods such as Shiva, stepping out to cosmic rhythms as the Lord of the Dance. In painting, Hindu miniatures illustrated the adventures of gods and lovers, while the Mughal emperors patronized a brilliant, elegant court art featuring portraits, battle scenes and everyday events such as polo matches. No book could do full justice to Indian art, but the plates in this book make a superb introduction to an unforgettable subject"--Page 4 of cover

Any artistic creation, be it a painting or sculpture, initiates a reaction within us, invoking within us a desire to analyse or evaluate it. The criticism of art definitely has its presence. But the question is—in what form and of what relevance is it? Art criticism is exclusively presented in the written form—it does not consist of descriptions of pictures, interpretations, or re-creations; but of something new and autonomous, related to the piece of art in some way. Criticism always gives us novel ideas for modern art, which in turn, enriches the Indian heritage. Art has been part of our life since ancient times. Traditionally, Indian art writing was mainly composed of commentaries on courtly art conventions and on the poetic texts that inspired paintings and sculptures. Since the 20th century, there has been a breakdown of established conceptions of meaning in the all streams of arts and several rapid changes in artistic style. This book will help readers understand the journey of modern art criticism since Indian independence. It formulates as precisely as possible, the basic principles and norms that will enrich artistically sensitive laymen and critics alike.
