Temple Architecture of India
Temple Architecture of India
Indian art has followed a consistent tradition ever since the Indus civilization. In the course of time some old elements were rejected, fresh conventions evolved and foreign elements assimilated. Popular art become increasingly stylised.
How much devotion our sculpture has evoked through the ages! What pleasure generations have derived from its beauty, grace of line and sensuousness! Yet all this work was painstakingly executed not for renown or individual self expression but out of dedication and discipline and pride in one’s craftsmanship.
The special distinction of our sculpture lies in its ability to capture many layers of spiritual meaning in physical form. The serene countenance of the Mathura Buddha proclaims the utter peace that comes from overcoming desire hence envy and suffering. The tranquillity of the Chola Parvati emanates from the self-possession acquired after intense tapas. But not all our sculpture is serious. Side by side with the exploration of the soul, is celebrated the exuberance of creation and there are many motifs and figures which seem to have no ostensible motive except that of sheer fun.

India – the land to travel to, a haven of tourism delights, a civilization to tour through. Tourists come to India for its wealth of sights, cultural exuberance, diversity of terrain and in search of that special something, an extra punch that only India promises and delivers. Teeming with over a billion people who voice over a million concerns in fifteen hundred different languages, India is where people live with variety, thrive on diversity and are too familiar with largeness to let it boggle them. Mud huts and mansions face off across city streets. Lurid luxury and limp living are inhabitants of the same lane.

Fashion Design Councils or Associations exist in all the primary fashion centers of the world. These councils were established to provide support and to benefit this vastly expanding and lucrative industry. In London, there is the British Fashion Council, in New York, the CFDA, and in Paris there is the Chambre Syndicale du Pręt-a-porter des Couturiers et des Createurs de Mode.
The FDCI will form a cohesive platform for designers. Create representations between its members and related governmental bodies, retailers and manufacturers thereby making the supply chain a smoother process. The council will conceptualize market trends and coordinate with manufacturers and retailers for the development of fabrics, prints etc.
Put up a proposal to accord industry status to the fashion business. Liaise with Financial Institutes and educate them on the credit-worthiness of its members. It will also look towards building investments schemes to support and finance its members.
