A slightly different approach in though...Hi johny,<br /><br />A slightly different approach in thought and style. It speaks well about the context in discussion and notions of 'struggling artist' or the 'anarchist artist.<br /> <br />The sad part in our country is that, both the 'anarchist of the 60s to 80s' and the 'glamourous' of present era, lacks originality as they are developed over the notions of ' todays artist', as you rightly mentioned as 'borrowed'. Indian anarchism, to a large extent was an indulgence to things that would give them a 'high' than humanism or democratic social thinking . 'Responsibility' is something these people understood late... <br /><br />I think it is time for the Art institutions to develop some sort of tie- up with galleries by which each graduating student gets at least one years contract, if they wish to have. It may help them to keep their foot a bit stable and find choices in the course of time. <br /><br />One comment a got by looking at my BFA work from a Professor of a reputed art institute was ' lacks struggle'. For many, as you put clearly, 'struggle' in terms of art, was, may be still is, an error in their thinking.<br /><br />There is some nuances of Eastern philosophical concepts of life, wisdom and process towards the later part of your essay, and it is this I mentioned in the beginning as a different approach in thought and style.<br /><br />Thanks for the essay. I liked reading it.<br /><br />Baalakrishnanvpbaalakrishnanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12443317765866770417noreply@blogger.com
