Some Artist Luminaries – DV Gundappa

Karnataka’s celebrated polymath, DV Gundappa brings together in this volume, episodes from the lives of remarkable exponents of classical music and dance, traditional storytellers, thespians, and connoisseurs, as well as his insightful observations on art, artistes, and connoisseurship. These memorable characters hailing from different corners of the erstwhile Mysore State are from a period that spans from the late nineteenth century to the mid-twentieth century. These memoirs, written in Kannada in the 1960s, go beyond personal memories and offer us a glimpse into the society of that era.

 Art Gallery of Memories ranks high among the great works of creative non-fiction in world literature and appears for the first time in English translation.
