Online edition of India's National Newspaper Sunday, June 17, 2001 Front Page National Southern States Other States ... Next Beauty, creativity, aesthetics.... By Bindu Jacob Under the leafy dome of peepul trees, 35 voices soar into the cloudy sky. Effortlessly these voices ``paint for you'' the adventures of the monkey-god, in eight verses of Tulsidas's ``Sankat Mochan Hanuman''. They then shift tune and sing to you the verses of ``Devi Stuti'': ``Ayi giri nandini nanditamedini...'' and conclude with ``Zindagi mein jo kuchh bhi mahaan hai, vah kalpana ya bhaas nahin hai...'' This magic was created not by famous or seasoned maestros but by young performers aged between five and 13, strung together by playwright-director-composer Gopal Sharman. For the past six weeks, these young ones have been learning the finer points of music, theatre and dance under his guidance and supervision. Based on the concept of beauty, creativity and aesthetics, Akshara Theater's summer workshop in classical arts for children was also guided by celebrated actress Jalabala Vaidya. Apart from music, it also gave them training in theatre. This year, it was the fun-filled enactment of ``Alice and Humpty Dumpty'', a play inspired by Lewis Carrol's ``Alice Through the Looking Glass'' which brought the children's latent creative talent out in the open.

Division 10 - Society for the Psychology of Aesthetics, Creativity and the Arts is committed to interdisciplinary scholarship, both theoretical and empirical, encompassing the visual arts, poetry, literature, music, and dance. Broadly conceived, we study three interrelated topics: creativity (including developmental, motivational, affective, and cognitive processes), the arts (including aesthetic content, form, and function), and audience response to the arts (including preferences and judgments). To this end, we apply personality, clinical, cognitive, perceptual, cultural, and postmodern psychologies to diverse artists, styles, and epochs. Division 10 offers a biannual newsletter; three annual awards, the Berlyne, Arnheim, and Farnsworth Awards; and discounts on five specialized journals.
