Essence of Tribal Art

Art is a form of self expression. When the imagination and thoughts of a person takes a tangible shape a piece of art is born.

The tradition of Indian tribal is as old as its trees and rivers and hills and humans. From time immemorial tribal people have expressed themselves through the medium of painting. Images have been sketched on pots and pans, on walls of village houses, on dried leaves and later on clothes and paper. Executed in almost all possible ways, painting has been an integral part of Indian civilization. Evolving out of the cave paintings of prehistoric period, tribal Painting continues to be a living tradition. Contemporary society has unearthed this immense treasure of tribal paintings that was shrouded in anonymity and neglect. Warli paintings, Saura paintings, Gond paintings and other forms of tribal art are internationally acclaimed possessions today.  ArtBeat is all about promoting the Indian art through it's merchandise among people.
