About this product
Product Information
* First-ever comprehensive book on the still lifes of one of India's leading modern painters * Analyzes the development of Chowdhury's still lifes chronologically and features 95 impactful images of the artist's work * Includes an in-depth interview of the artist that reveals how the painter's art is permeated by his universe of ideas and ideals The Afterlife of Silence is the first-ever comprehensive book on the still lifes of Jogen Chowdhury, one of India's leading modern painters. The book takes a close look at the essentials of the European tradition of still life painting and argues that Chowdhury's works, while sharing certain common concerns of the tradition also differ significantly from it, and are firmly rooted in his indigenous situatedness. It explores how, in his still lifes, unregarded, everyday objects are irradiated with new life and unique relational possibilities. It also examines how his still lifes oscillate between life and death, between stillness and animation, a movement that conceptually underpins the cycle of nature and lived life, and how moments of silence and stillness acquire afterlives -with trails of significations that often go beyond the context of particular artworks. The book analyzes the development of Chowdhury's still lifes chronologically; a section deals with the distinctive ways in which his still lifes negotiate with desire - and its obverse, dread - and manage to create autonomous symbolic systems, addressing the nostalgia of inaccessibility. A separate chapter examines how his familiar organic lines, used to define human forms, are used in still life forms as well, and in this context, several of his major works are examined closely. This book features about 80 impactful images of Chowdhury's paintings and an in-depth interview with the artist by the author that reveals how the painter's art is permeated by his universe of ideas and ideals.

Super impressed with this seller! They had the best price by far for this book! Both the cost of the book and the shipping fee was far better than average! The book came exactly as described, it was well packaged and quite a bit earlier than expected! The seller was polite and replied quickly to my messages.
I’ll definitely make another purchase soon!
Thank you to the seller! Be safe and keep up the great work!

No communication occurred, but I imagine it would have been as good as the rest of their customer service. Very happy with purchase, thank you very much!
