Autorenporträt
Madhvi Parekh (b. 1942) is a self-taught artist from India known for her folk-inspired paintings. Her work draws on childhood memories, mythology and women's craft traditions. She explores themes of human experience, the divine feminine and the interplay between reality and the surreal. Parekh has exhibited internationally and received numerous awards, including a fellowship from the Indian Ministry of Culture and a Whirlpool Women's Achievement Award. Manu Parekh (b. 1939) a leading Indian artist, draws inspiration from Paul Klee, Tagore and the folk art of India. Rooted in the tangible and sensual, his work celebrates the beauty of embroidery and traditional craftsmanship. Recognized with prestigious awards, Parekh's art is a fusion of modernism and Indian heritage. Chanakya School of Craft, a unique women-only education facility in India, is dedicated to preserving India's rich handcraft heritage.
