These insightful essays explore how the intersection of artistic and scientific pursuits shapes creative processes.
In this collection of essays by one of India’s most celebrated artists, K. G. Subramanyan explores many questions that have shaped his art and his process. Among the ideas that shape this collection are such questions as how does the artist’s eye manipulate her view of the world?; was a visual defect responsible for the birth of impressionism?; what is the grammar of the art language?; how can rasa theory help explain the aesthetic experience of visual art?; and what drives artistic and scientific pursuits, and how do aesthetic experiences shape the creative process in both domains?
In A Matter of Perspective and Other Essays, Subramanyan answers these questions with his trademark candor, lucidity, and wisdom, shedding new light on his work and creative philosophy.
