The Four Visionaries of Indian Modern Art

A new exhibition exploring the works of F N Souza, K G Subramanyan, Ram Kumar, and V S Gaitonde celebrates their revolutionary contributions to Indian modern art. These four pioneers, each with a unique style, have inspired generations with their bold explorations of culture, identity, and spirituality.

An exhibition dedicated to F N Souza, K G Subramanyan, Ram Kumar, and V S Gaitonde commemorates their pioneering contributions to Indian modern art. Held at the Progressive Art Gallery in collaboration with the Raza Foundation, this showcase marks the birth centenary of these iconic artists.

The exhibit provides a rare glimpse into the artistic journey of these masters, who crafted a distinctly Indian narrative of modernity. Born in 1924, each artist forged a unique path, blending tradition with innovation, steering away from earlier schools of Indian art, and laying the groundwork for future artists.

Curated by Yashodhara Dalmia, the exhibition underscores the courageous and imaginative path these artists carved. From Souza's provocative themes to Subramanyan's fusion of myth and social commentary, their boldness continues to influence and inspire. The showcase concludes on November 10.
