SANAT KAR



The linear assumes the sinuous movements of a dance in Sanat Kar's paintings, where the surface wit is infused with irony. It invites one into ' poignant solitude,' as Kar declares.

Born 1935. He joined the Government College of Art and Craft at Kolkata in 1950. After matriculation along with fellow-students Kar formed a group called The Artists' Circle in 1952. A very senior artist, he taught at Kala Bhavan, Santi Niketan for many years.
