Dance Paintings

Indian culture has often seen a close relationship between the visual arts (painting and sculptures) with the performing arts like dance, music and drama. Such is the influence that the sculptures and carvings of Gods and Goddesses in temples were also moulded in forms of them performing movements. These temples also included people who were cast in stone as celebrating with music and dance. One of the oldest bronze sculptures discovered was also ‘The Dancing Girl’.
With time the artists also began to use paintings to capture the numerous and unique forms the dancer would take as he/she performed. Artists have created Dance art in different media such as acrylic paintings, metal sculptures, serigraphs. Dance paintings & sculptures capture the vibrancy, elegance and energy the human body takes and can add the perfect sense of movement and dynamism that a particular space needs. Some of the artists such as Anuradha Thakur also capture the regional & tribal forms of dance and celebration in India.
