About
Why this artist matters now
Jamini Roy was an Indian painter whose work synthesized European modernist simplification with the visual language of Kalighat bazaar paintings sold as temple talismans. His flattened, highly distilled forms departed from academic conventions in Indian art of the early twentieth century. He received the Padma Bhushan from the Government of India in 1954.
