Product Details
[Softcover, 112 pages] Sanganer: Traditional Textiles, Contemporary Cloth traces the evolution of hand block printing in an historic textile town and demonstrates the versatility of this living craft in face of modernization and ‘progress.’ The Anokhi Museum of Hand Printing in Jaipur supports an ongoing research program to study block printing, primarily in select regions of northern India. There is increasing emphasis on not only detailing technical processes, but also capturing the artisan’s memories and the stories embedded in the cloth. In conjunction with this research, AMHP has published a series of books illustrated with photographs and 100% cotton block printed fabric swatches. These publications further appreciation of both the art and its skilled practitioners.
