The mapping of the history and trajectory of Indian modern art is a
project begun only in recent years and included in it is the
recovery of lesser known names and moments from under the shadow of
a few dominant ones. Within it, its conscience keeper-art
criticism-has borne greater neglect and obscurity. One such voice,
heard with considerable attention in its time, was that of the
Delhi-based art critic K. B. Goel (1930-2018). Active from the late
1950s to the '90s, his career broadly coincided with the modernist
period. Active mainly as a reviewer, Goel also wrote lengthy
reflective assessments, and his art writings stand out for an
interpretative and often theory-based approach that is quite unique
to Indian art criticism. Writing on some of the most definitive
artists, movements, and styles of twentieth-century Indian art, he
bears the distinction of successfully transitioning from his
modernist training to theorize on the earliest postmodern
developments in Indian art, such as installation art. This
annotated volume seeks to bring together Goel's major writings,
accompanied by a critical introduction that draws attention to his
frameworks, concerns, and methodologies. It has a foreword by the
eminent art critic Geeta Kapur.
