This collection of rare abstract Tantra drawings was conceived when the French poet Franck Andr Jamme stumbled on a small catalogue of Tantric art at a Paris booksellers stall. The volume included writings by Octavio Paz and Henri Michaux and Jamme became fascinated by the images affinity with modern art and poetry. He read voraciously and even journeyed to India searching in vain for Tantric practitioners until a bus accident on the road to Jaipur sent him home to France with serious injuries.
