Chittaprosad

a retrospective 1915-1978

"About the exhibition: One of India's most principled, humane and compassionate painters, Chittaprosad's work here is documented in full, comprising of his political drawings, his propaganda posters, his rich oeuvre for children, and his experiments across mediums that included puppetry. Mounted on a scale that aims to do justice to his intellect, curiosity and experimentation, this is among the most important exhibitions ever to be mounted on an artist in India. For some, it will change their understanding of Chittaprosad; for others, it will change the way they view art."--Publisher's website.
