The Toymakers - Light From India's Urban Poor
|
- Author: Scharada Dubey
- The toymakers of India are representative of the vast numbers of urban poor embodying great qualities of resilience, resourcefulness and creativity; asserted themselves as part of the urban self-employed. Such a self-directed existence is often admired by the poor and deprived. By the way they have chosen to live, the toymaker shows others around them how they too, can live – if they dare.
Driven by the conviction that the individual matters, whether she or he is poor or rich, Scharada Dubey has written a riveting account of a community, transcending caste, place, gender and time. It is the story of how micro and macro economics are intertwined and that a just and humane society is possible through individual commitment.

Cosmos
|
- Strange planetary bodies suspended in swirling cloudscapes, the heavens in motion – such is the response to Vijay Kumar Sawhney’s art works. Sawhney’s fascination for the occult is evident in his art. A former bank manager and businessman, Sawhney, now 70, began only in 2006 to experiment with inks and paints. A true outsider artist Sawhney is an intuitive Abstract painter, who lets his lifetime of studying the supernatural guide him in creating with visions of creatures and objects of known and the unknown worlds, beautiful divine beings portrayed with unusual effects such as the crackle and the shadow finish.
