CONTEMPORARY INDIAN ARTISTS

Year: 1978

This work is widely regarded as one of the foundational texts on post-independence Indian modern art.

In the book, Kapur offers critical essays and in-depth studies of key modern Indian artists such as M.F. Husain, Tyeb Mehta, F.N. Souza, and others. She discusses their artistic evolution, sociopolitical context, and their dialogue with both Western modernism and Indian traditions. The book combines art criticism, theory, and cultural commentary, making it an essential resource for students, scholars, and collectors of Indian contemporary art.
