Now that summer is officially over I can hunker down and get some work done ..right now I'm working on getting an inventory of puppets.
Model: Me
Dolls of the War Machine,
they are fighting for a hopeless Cause
with Pride and Zest for Action,
until someone presses the red Button
and they will be a Number on the crumpled Paper...
Kathputli is a string puppet theatre, native to Rajasthan, India, and is the most popular form of Indian puppetry.Being a string marionette, it is controlled by a single string that passes from the top of the puppet over the puppeteers.
Some scholars believe Kathputli art tradition is more than thousands years old. One finds its reference in Rajasthani folk tales, ballads and sometimes even in folk songs.Similar puppets which are rod-puppets, are also found in west Bengal. But it is truly rajasthan's amazing kathputli which made India one of the first countries to invent its traditional puppetry .Tribes of Rajasthan have been performing this art from the ancient times and it has become an eternal part of Rajasthani culture and tradition. No village fair, no religious festival and no social gathering in Rajasthan can be complete without the Kathputlis. It is believed that somewhere 1500 years ago, tribal Rajasthani Bhat community started the use of Kathputli as string marionette art and it is in their love for tradition that art of Kathputli survived the test of time.
Tradition of Kathputli is based on folk tales and stories. Scholars believe that folk tales convey the lifestyle of ancient Rajasthani tribal people and Kathputli art might have originated from present day Nagaur and surrounding areas. Rajasthani Kings and nobles were patrons of Art and Craft and they encouraged the craftsmen in activities ranging from wood and marble carving to weaving, pottery and painting. Over the last 500 years, Kathputli was a system of patronage supported by kings and well-off families. The patrons would look after the artists in return for the artists singing praises of the patrons’ ancestors. Bhat community claim that their ancestors had performed for royal families, and received great honour and prestige from the rulers of Rajasthan.
The classic puppet repertoire inspired by traditional Chinese opera is exhibited at the Chengdu Museum in Chengdu, Sichuan, China.

Puppetry - Katputlis, as it locally known in the colourful soil of Rajasthan. The puppetry is one of the most ancient forms of entertainment and amusement. Besides providing an enjoyment, this visual art, today convey a meaningful message to the village folks.
Over the years, Puppetry has attained powerful communication skills, and various stage shows are organised for puppetry, followed by the full-throated songs of the Mirasis, Langas and Manganiyars, which belong to pastimes, depicting a traditional, leisurely pace of life.
In Rural Rajasthan, puppet shows are organised to ward off evil spirits and to bring rain and prosperity in the lives of villagers.
...they come in pairs.
Locally known as Kathputli, kath meaning wood and putli meaning doll, puppets and puppetry define Rajasthani folklore; this art form is on the wane, and survive mainly because of patronage of hotels and some government funding...

Day 6 of 366
She stretches her arms out,
Stares up to the sky,
Wishing for the wings that could teach her to fly,
She's trapped on the earth here feet tied to the ground,
The forces of gravity keep pushing her down,
To the world she is one person to one person she is the world,
She want's to be an angel but she is only a girl,
And though she is life's puppet, she will break all the strings,
But for now she is just dreaming of earning her wings.

A puppet quietly appears inside the little box theater, hoping to catch people's attention so a show can begin. Today the bike was parked just off Clark Street in Andersonville...such a happy, adorable thing to see! More on the Puppet Bike: www.puppetbike.com

Our local library invites the children to come to see the marionettes every Holiday Season. A delightful show for young and young at heart.
