Hardcover. Condition: As New. Contents I 1. Retrieving the connection. 2. In the end is the beginning Time memory myth. 3. Traditional definition of sculpture. 4. Who is doing sculpture in India today. 5. Winds from the west. 6. Current concerns. II 1. Mental events. 2. Pattern (Panjara). 3. Structure. 4. Systems. 5. Contents. I…II 1. Sculpture diagrams of immanent underlying patterns i. Carmel Berkson. ii. Dasavatara Cave 15 Ellora. IV 1. Carmel Berkson Sculpture and related myths i. Indra. ii. Durga on lion. iii. Mahishamardini. iv. Siva. v. Visnu Krishna. vi. Rasa. The author wonders why so many Indian studio sculptors today choose to follow their contemporaries in the west since the vision of these peers is the exclusive product of the western historical past which bears little relevance to the complex world that is India. She expresses the hope that dormant cultural dynamics can be reawakened after depth encounters with the great sculpture of India. Hopefully this will result in revitalized native art forms. Diagrams photographs and texts clarify modern insights and reveal inherent patterns structures and systems on the macro level in the cave and built temples and on the micro level in quantum physics. There exists the possibility that these intrinsic tendencies in nature might be the precise point of interaction the path by means of which the modern Indian sculptor can renew contact with indigenous aesthetics. In viewing her own work displayed here in photographs Berkson acknowledges her debt to Indian sculpture in concept style and primarily in vigour. Indeed her dominant themes derive from the rich storehouse of Indian mythology and legend Durga slaying the buffalo demon/God the awesome dance of Siva the man lion Avatara of Visnu Krishna subduing Kaliya and many more. The statues are imbued with Rasa or essence that characterizes all genuine Indian art. While the style is modern and individual the spirit is ancient and universal. 136 pp.

hardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. 1983 Princeton University Press (Princeton, New Jersey), 8 5/8 x 10 1/4 inches tall brown cloth hardcover in publisher's unclipped dust jacket, gilt lettering to spine, brown endpapers, copiously illustrated with black-and-white photographs and line drawings, xvii, 48 pp.…plus 75 numbered plates on [61] pp. Slight smoky odor. Very slight rubbing to covers. Small ink stain to lower margin of one page. Otherwise, a very good copy - clean, bright and unmarked - in a slightly stained, rubbed and edgeworn dust jacket which is nicely preserved and displayed in a clear archival Brodart sleeve. Note that this is a heavy and oversized book, so additional postage will be required for international or priority orders. ~SP47~ [2.5P] Three descriptive essays and numerous fascinating photographs allow the reader to experience a major monument of Indian art: the sixth-century temple cave on Elephanta Island, in Bombay harbor, and its extraordinary stone sculptures. The authors and the photographer capture the atmosphere of the cave and the spirit of the sculptures, which portray the relentless energy and paradoxical power of Shiva, greatest of all Hindu gods. In the text Wendy O'Flaherty interprets the myths of Shiva depicted in the sculpture; Ms. Berkson's essay supplies historical background and a stylistic analysis; and George Michell examines the overall structure of the cave to show that it is a mandala-like image of the heavenly mountain residence of Shiva and even of the structure of the universe itself.

Hardcover. Condition: As New. Berkson gives a lively description of the importance of the Goddess-Buffalo demon legend in contemporary India, illustrated with remarkable photographs of the annual ritual enactment of the myth in village festivals as well as urban settings. Berkson views the myth as a significant reflection of the… tension between the adolescent male, striving for a separate identity, and the dominating mother figure, filtered through the Brahmin priest/myth maker/narrator.
