<http://www.blouinartinfo.com/artists/222411-ryan-gander>, including a 
film, descriptively titled “A portrait of a colour blind artist obscured 
by flowers,” and other works that further develop the artist’s imagined 
creative utopia, “Culturefield.”

Canvases on celluloid

The art film genre can be divided into several subgenres, says cultural 
commentator Sadanand Menon. There are descriptive films, like Satyajit 
Ray <http://www.thehindu.com/thread/reflections/article8547425.ece>’s 
/The Inner Eye/, that provide historical context to an artist and his or 
her creations. Ray’s 1972 documentary on a blind artist and teacher, 
Benode Behari Mukherjee, from Visva-Bharati University comes with the 
filmmaker’s own sonorous, weighty commentary. Arun Khopkar’s /Figures of 
Thought /on Bhupen Khakar, Nalini Malani and Vivan Sundaram, and 
/Colours of Absence /on Jehangir Sabavala are the most celebrated and 
cerebral documentaries on Indian artists.
