Sanjukta Sunderason Partisan Aesthetics explores art's entanglements with histories of war, famine, mass politics, and displacements that marked late-colonial and postcolonial India. Introducing 'partisan aesthetics' as a conceptual grid, the book identifies ways in which art became political through interactions with left-wing activism during the 1940s and its afterlives in post-independence India.
