Atul Dodiya \/ Curator: Ranjit Hoskote, Nancy Adajania<\/p>\n
About the Book<\/strong><\/p>\n The Dialogues Series explores the converns, careers and contexts of some of India\u2019s most acclaimed artists. Each book in the series takes the form of an extended conversation between an individual artist and the authors, Ranjit Hoskote and Nancy Adajania, two of India\u2019s best known and most authoritative critics. The Dialogues Series provies sharply etched portraits of the artists and critically engaged accounts of their work. It sees each artist\u2019s journey in review, with its distinctive transitions, breakthroughs and evolutionary rhythms. The Dialogues Series also situates the imagination and lifeworld of the artists within larger art-historical genealogies, cultural narratives and political discussions, both Indian and global. The Series aims to create a discursive space in which both enthusuasts and scholars can reflect on the arguments that art and criticism conduct with history. The series is founded on the belief that the history of art does not simply revolve around the personalities of individual artists or the trends of the day; it also records the vital historical and pholosophical questions that are posed and played out on the contested terrain of art.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n About the Author<\/strong><\/p>\n ATUL DODIYA<\/strong> (born 1959) has shown extensively in India with Gallery Chemould (in 1989, 1991, 1995, 1997, 1999 and 2001) and Chemould Prescott Road, Mumbai (2007), the Vadehra Art Gallery, New Delhi (1999, 2000 and 2010) and the CIMA Gallery, Kolkata (1997).
