Summary/Abstract |
This book is a photographic reproduction of paintings by Laxman Shreshtha, b. 1939, Nepali painter. Shreshtha's abstract works are both sensuous and meditative in their shifts and balances of colour. Celebrated as an abstractionist, Laxman Shrestha's works are intricately related to his life's journey and struggles. Though abstract, his paintings have a sense of intrigue in them, and are often described as 'soul searching' .He has taken the genre of landscape painting to new heights and dimensions. A Van Gogh admirer, he believes that "Passion, honesty and determination" are the three qualities that are most important for an artist.

Summary/Abstract |
This pioneering book is an authentic portrayal of the formative years of modern Indian art, when its parameters were being established. Between its hesitant beginnings in British -established art schools, and the inspired individualism of many present day artists, lies the story of the Progressive Artists Group. These young painters, who rebelled both against the Bengal school, as well as the naturalism introduced by the art schools, met frequently, holding night-long discussions in their struggle to survive in the dramatic development of contemporary Indian art.
