Aicon Gallery Presents Figure/ Landscape - Part Two In London & New York, Closes 1/9
Aicon Gallery, London is pleased to present Figure/ Landscape Part Two, the second part of our successful New York show. The show features some of India's most prominent modernist painters, all well-known for their explorations of both the figurative and the landscape. Landscape, the figurative and also the figure located in landscape occupy Indian modernist artists signficantly more so than in the European or the North American modernist tradition. In part this is down to a refusal on the part of most artists to commit totally to abstraction, unlike say, their European counterparts. And in part, the continued references to figure and the landscape seem to be a way of asserting a national identity to the modernist experiments Indian artists undertook at the time.
