About Artist
JOGEN CHOWDHURY
Considered an eminent artist of the 21st century and recipient of
the Banga Bibhusan award, 2012, Jogen Chowdhury is famous
for his works in ink, water-colour and pastels. He has also done
paintings in oil.
What he is specially known for is his mastery over lines and its tactile
characteristics in creating his human forms, figures and other
subjects of his paintings. His almost magical treatment of a simple
line not only creates form but adds character to it.
The lucid and deliberate distortion of his forms is to create a feel of
the caricature as he makes his figures speak all they have to. His
figures are the very important part of his painting, each communicating
a message where the use of colour is just an enhancer of
the form. His images and motifs are often more suggestive than
explicit.
In the words of R.Shiva Kumar, “The pulse and rhythm of Jogen
Chowdhury’s art comes from a filial affinity to nature and milieu.”
