He Looks At The Stunningly Diverse Artistic Production Of Key Artists Associated With Pakistan, Including Abdur Rahman Chughtai, Zainul Abedin, Shakir Ali, Zubeida Agha, Sadequain, Rasheed Araeen, And Naiza Khan. Dadi Shows How, Beginning In The 1920S, These Artists Addressed The Challenges Of Modernity By Translating Historical And Contemporary Intellectual Conceptions Into Their Work, Reworking Traditional Approaches To The Classical Islamic Arts, And Engaging The Modernist Approach Towards Subjective Individuality In Artistic Expression. In The Process, They Dramatically Reconfigured The Visual Arts Of The Region. By The 1930S, These Artists Had Embarked On A Sustained Engagement With International Modernism In A Context Of Dizzying Social And Political Change That Included Decolonization, The Rise Of Mass Media, And Developments Following The National Independence Of India And Pakistan In 1947.Bringing New Insights To Such Concepts As Nationalism, Modernism, Cosmopolitanism, And Tradition, Dadi Underscores The Powerful Impact Of Transnationalism During This Period And Highlights The Artists' Growing Embrace Of Modernist And Contemporary Artistic Practice In Order To Address The Challenges Of The Present Era.
