Akbar Padamsee is a commanding presence in the contemporary Indian art movement, his imaginative work replete with metascapes and figures splendid in their alienation and solitude. It is his treatment of the human form, which conveys both pain and tenderness that makes his art visually stunning and intellectually provocative.

“Padamsee’s devoted attention to form, volume, space, time, and color makes his works both real and transcendent,” said gallery owner Mr. Kent Charugundla. “It will be an honor to host a show of one of the most important ground-breaking modern artist of our time.” The exhibition will feature work done in pencil and charcoal on paper as well as watercolors.
