About this listen

 Folk-art as a visual medium does not have a unique definition but generally consists of all forms of visual art delivered in the context of an existent society within a particular geographical and cultural niche. Folk art in India apparently has a great potential in the international market because of its traditional aesthetic sensibility and authenticity. Some of the most famous folk paintings of India are the Madhubani paintings of Bihar, Patachitra paintings from the state of Odisha, the Nirmal paintings of Andhra Pradesh, and other such folk art forms. Folk art is however not restricted only to paintings, but also stretches to other art forms such as pottery, home decorations, ornaments, cloths-making, and so on. Tribal art generally reflects the creative energy found in rural areas that acts as an undercurrent to the craftsmanship of the tribal people. Tribal art ranges through a wide range of art forms, such as wall paintings, tribal dances, tribal music, and so on. Here I tell about - Madhubani paintings of Bihar, Warli Paintings of Maharashtra, Aipan of Uttarakhand, Patachitra Painting of Orissa, Phad Paintings of Rajasthan, Kalamkari of Andhra Pradesh, Gond Paintings of Madhya Pradesh, Mandana Paintings of Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan, Saora Paintings of Orissa, Pithoro paintings of Gujarat, Pichhvai Paintings of Rajasthan, Nirmal paintings of Andhra Pradesh, Tanjore Art, Rajasthani Miniature Painting. Folk paintings give aesthetical feelings and remind us about the native life through their colorful line drawings.
