Lot 0097: INDIAN RAMKINKAR BAIJ MIXED MEDIA PAINTING

41 reviews

Ramkinkar Baij, Indian, 1910 to 1980, mixed media on canvas painting depicting Expressionist human figures. Signed lower left. Ramkinkar Baij was the earliest Indian artist to experiment with abstract sculptural forms. His oil on canvas paintings have a singular experimenting quality going beyond its time, unregimented by dogmas and with only one commitment to be unstintingly creative. Although primarily known for his expressionistic sculpture, he was a gifted painter. This sense of rhythm that his sculpture is noted for is manifest brilliantly in his watercolors. The fluidity of this medium lent itself to his style. His works in the Kalighat tradition interconnected with Cubism to achieve a peculiarly personal idiom. One of a kind artwork.
