India is known and admired, more for its Arts and Crafts tradition than anything else. It is also starkly
obvious that the arts & crafts of India are closely linked to religion, to the caste
system of Hindu's, to the traditions of idol worship and various methods of offering
gratitude and thankfulness to the god.
IHE, in its
efforts to showcase and keep alive this unique tradition, has build a unique museum of
Indian Art and Crafts objects. Almost all aspects of traditions, arts and crafts, are
covered here.ihe, as an institution, wants its visitors to understand and feel the
magnitude of this tradition and also the subtle artistry involved, by watching master
craftsmen create artifacts.
IHE displays are divided into various sections presented on
the left. Each section is detailed out to give a fair idea of that particular art &
craft tradition. In case you are interested in knowing more about some particular aspects
of these traditions, please get in touch with us. We will be
only too glad to interact with you! |
