My Concept of Art

My Concept of Art is a quasi-autobiographical essay that leads the reader through different phases of Hore's life: from his early adventures in drawing to his involvement in India's struggle for freedom from British rule, from his time with the Communist Party of India to his formal induction to the world of art. The book outlines developments in Hore's artistic thinking and places his life in the social and political context of the world around him, while providing powerful insight into one man's notions of art and politics and the relationship between them.
