Inscape

The Indian School of Art for Peace, or INSCAPE, was started in 1984 at a location which was called the "Art Ashram". INSCAPE was a concept of an art school, modeled on the understanding of an ashram that Rabindranath Tagore created at Shantiniketan, north of Calcutta, in Birbhum district. Here the "Sadhana" or spiritual practice of the ashram would be based on an understanding of the spiritual in art. Art is here understood in a very broad sense, comprising not only the visual arts, but also story telling, poetry, and performance art. An attempt would be made to realize a connective aesthetics in which the different arts support each other in a common search for wholeness.
