Biography of Manjit Bawa

Manjit Bawa was born in a small Punjabi town of Dhuri in 1941
He studied fine arts at the School of Art, New Delhi between 1958 and 1963, where his professors included Somnath Hore, Rakesh Mehra, Dhanaraj Bhagat and B.C. Sanyal.Bawa feels he gained an identity under Abani Sen who would ask him to do 50 sketches every day. Between 1964 and 1971, Bawa worked as a silkscreen printer in Britain, where he also studied art.
Manjit Bawa's canvases are distinguishable in their colors - the ochre of sunflowers, the green of the paddy fields, the red of the sun, the blue of the mountain sky. He was one of the first painters to break out of the dominant grays and browns and opted for more traditionally Indian colors like pinks, reds and violet.Nature also plays inspiration here.Birds and animals make a constant appearance in his paintings, either alone or in human company.He has painted Krishna with a flute, surrounded by dogs and not by cows as mythological paintings depict him. Besides these, figures of Kali and Shiva dominate Bawa's canvases; "they are the icons of my country," he feels. If Bawa is known for his vibrant paintings, he is also known for his love of spirituality, and particularly of Sufi philosophy.
