ALAIN DANIÉLOU (1907-1994): A Photographic Dossier
A critical reclamation of the polyhedric scholar, who, through his intense connection with the experiential, guides us into the post-anthropocene world
FIND
The India-Europe Foundation for New Dialogues (FIND) was founded by the thinker and artist Alain Daniélou together with Honorary President, Jacques Cloarec, in 1969, under the name Harsharan Foundation. Their aim was to establish an ongoing dialogue between Indian and European culture beyond the usual prejudices and limitations of intercultural confrontation. Today FIND has two main areas: Artistic Dialogue and Intellectual Dialogue. The ultimate purpose of FIND is to show that Alain Daniélou’s view of life, reflected in the realization of his various talents (sanskritist, musician, philosopher, dancer, painter, translator and artisan), provides an alternative model to deal with the general disorientation of our globalized society and to intensify the meaning of human experience.
