About This Book

"This book adroitly refers and relates to aesthetic, gender, money, power, possession, politics, difference and justice as they are played out on the body of the Other. The body becomes a battleground, especially the body of the Other, Drawing attention to the misrepresentation and reinterpretation of the aesthetics of Indian art, the author poses the in-between seductive space, to bring back the forgotten cosmic essence. Examining aesthetic creations--sensuous, passionate, erotic, immoral, the author discusses how the neo/post colonial Indians have not changed since the Victorian moral codes and today (how to the Other), what was primitive and barbaric has become trendy and exotic."--Pub. desc.
