is Hindu calendar art kitsch?

I'd say so, it's very Lisa Frank. But at least they understand symmetry.

no, the calendar is kitsch, the religious art is iconography

Bright colors != kitsch

Not exactly in the traditional sense of the word, it just looks kitschy because of vivid colours. Hindu's would argue that it's intricate, serious and not an exaggerated take of a pre-existing art form. I guess 'unironic kitsch' is the closest thing to describe it.

"unironic kitsh" , i think it may be the best term. could it mean that they may be a little less morose and delusioned than us, and that we are just looking down on them through our kind of cultural nihilism?
