One of the things we take very seriously in India is our cinema. We are vehemently opinionated about what constitutes ‘good’ cinema and yet, fervently united when it comes to Indian cinema outside our shores. Taking into account that we produce the world’s largest number of films (and that I will shortly be releasing my own Tamil film, Meow, 20 years after I produced Target, a film written by Satyajit Ray), it felt like the right time to dedicate an issue to Cinema and Art. Through this issue, we wanted to explore the inter-relationship between the filmmaker and the artist, sometimes within the same person, and deconstruct the character of a visual image on celluloid through the tangible avenues of lighting, production design, art direction, costume and make up. We have tried to understand the aesthetic of art through the language of cinema, and in the process, became conscious of not just the art we experience in cinema, but also of those who create that experience through cinema.
