If there is one subject that has failed to come under a serious
preview of Indian art, it is erotica. Grossly under-represented and
misused -- as a source of titillation by some, as a marketing
principle by others -- erotica has finally found the focus it
deserves with this book. From the earliest of terracotta images of
the mother goddess to Tantric diagrams, from celluloid depictions
to palm leaf paintings, from modern art and advertising graffiti to
the fine details of miniature paintings, this book covers ground
that others have not ventured into. Finding a striking continuity
in the motifs used in erotic art, it grounds them in the principles
that have shaped brush strokes and line drawings, curvatures and
camera focuses through the centuries. Varied visuals, some as old
as Indian civilisation itself, most as sensuous as the topic they
cover, chart this fresh rediscovery.
