"Every artist dips his brush in his own soul, and paints his own nature into his pictures."

S H Raza

S H Raza

At the heart of S H Raza's art is the celebration of nature, whether it emerged through his early expressionist watercolor landscapes of the 1940s, cubist compositions during his time in Paris, or his later abstract works characterized by fusion of geometric shapes with principles of spirituality. Often, his themes were drawn from his childhood memories which he spent in the forests of his native village in Madhya Pradesh. Raza's stylistic evolution over nearly eight decades reveals the life of an artist and an individual who constantly challenged the limits of modern art, as well as his own. 

 

Born in 1922, Raza spent his childhood in Babaria village in the Mandala district of Madhya Pradesh, surrounded by dark forests and lush landscapes. This early experience with nature became a lifelong preoccupation for Raza, and he would revisit these memories on canvas in later years. His love for art took him to Bombay, where he enrolled privately as a student at the J J School of Arts, earning his diploma in 1947. At the same time, he earned a living working in the design studio of a blockmaker. in the center of Bombay, from where he overlooked one of the busiest streets in the city and inspired him to paint his first watercolors. His paintings attracted the attention of fellow artists F N Souza and M F Husain, with whom he co-founded the Progressive Artists' Group, and of critics such as Rudy von Leyden, Walter Langhammer and Emmanuel Schlesinger, three Europeans whose presence, patronage and influence were crucial. in the flourishing art world of the then Bombay. 

 

In 1948, Raza traveled to Kashmir, a place that greatly impressed him and inspired him to paint with renewed passion and intensity. That year was the first turning point in Raza's life. One of his landscapes of the Kashmir Valley earned him the gold medal from the Bombay Society of Arts. The PAG held its first group exhibition in Bombay, which received much praise and acclaim and laid the foundation for the beginning of Indian modernism. That same year, Raza also met the renowned French photographer Henri Cartier-Bresson, who advised him to study the works of Paul Cezanne to give a sense of construction to his work. Inspired by his art, Raza traveled to Paris on a government scholarship and spent the next few years perfecting his craft at the School of Paris. This move to France marked the beginning of the next phase of Raza's career. 

 

Inspired by the French landscape, Raza's works from the 1950s demonstrate a decidedly cubist approach, informed by a sense of order and proportion in form and structure. (Artist cited in Geeti Sen, Bindu: Space and Time in Raza's Vision, New Delhi: Media Transasia Ltd., 1997, p. 57) He exhibited in many group and solo exhibitions in Paris, and his works were sold and became part of important collections. Raza had also gained wide recognition in Europe and India. He also met his future partner, artist Janine Mongillat, while studying at art school. Raza and Mongillat married in 1959 and visited India that same year for an exhibition of Raza's works organized by the artist and gallerist Bal Chhabda at Gallery 59 in Mumbai. After this performance, Raza returned to India several times, traveling to his native village, which inspired the Bindu motif in later works, as well as to other undiscovered parts. These visits to places new and old marked the beginning of another phase of painting that incorporated his Indian heritage. Raza was moving away from the need to paint what he saw, he was more drawn to painting what he remembered... It wasn't romantic nostalgia, but Raza was torn between two worlds: the tumultuous present and the peaceful past. Beauty and fear come together again at the beginning of his life. (Ashok Vajpeyi ed., A Life in Art: S H Raza, New Delhi: Art Alive Gallery, 2007, p. 80) 

 

In the 1960s, Raza began to move away from the cubist style towards a more fluid and fluid form of expression. In 1962, he was invited as a visiting professor at the University of California at Berkeley, United States. The American abstract expressionist movement had taken over the Parisian art scene, and Raza saw greater freedom in this particular style, inspired by artists such as Mark Rothko, whose works he encountered during his stay in the United States. He gradually abandoned all the figurative and representative forms and the carefully constructed compositions of the fifties. He began making gestural strokes on canvas, where the figure and background were no longer separated but blended into a composite whole. Also in the middle, he went from oil to acrylic. Raza's gestural works from this period were emotional essays full of color and vibrant movement. Colors were not used as merely formal elements: they were loaded with emotions. Their movements or consonances on the canvases seemed increasingly provoked by emotions, reflecting or embodying emotional content. The previous objectivity, or perhaps distance, began to be replaced or at least modified by an emerging subjectivity: colors began to take on the slight charge of emotions more than ever. (Vajpeyi, p. 78) 

 

Raza worked mainly with a few primary colors, assembled and reassembled to simulate the passion and colors of his native land. At the same time, he became aware of the spiritual and metaphysical aspects of nature and began to incorporate these principles into his works. In the late 1970s, the artist's attention turned to pure geometric forms; His images were improvisations on an essential theme: that of mapping a metaphorical space in the mind. Around this time, the Bindu motif that would become synonymous with Raza's art began to emerge in his work. It was the result of his concern for pure plastic order combined with his concern for nature. Both have converged on a single point and have become inseparable; The point, the Bindu, symbolizes the seed, which in a sense contains the potential of all life. It is also a visible form containing all the essential requirements of line, tone, color, texture and space. Black space is charged with latent forces that aspire to be realized. (Artist cited in Sen, p. 134) 

 

The emergence of the Bindu as a unique and meditative form marked Raza's transition towards pure geometric abstraction, the hallmark of his art in later years. In his long and illustrious career, Raza's works have been part of numerous exhibitions, including the Sao Paulo Biennial in 1958, the Menton Biennial in France in 1966, 1968 and 1978, Contemporary Indian Painting at the Royal Academy, London in 1982, Roopankar Museum of Fine Arts, Bharat Bhavan, Bhopal, Jehangir Art Gallery, Mumbai, National Gallery of Modern Art, New Delhi in 1997, Celebrating 85 years of living legend S H Raza, a traveling exhibition in Hong Kong, Singapore, Dubai, Mumbai, New Delhi organized by Aryan Art Gallery and Raza A Retrospective, Saffronart, New York in association with Berkeley Square Gallery in 2007, Paysage: Selected Works from the Years 1950s to 1970s, Sovereign FZE, Dubai in 2014, and Nirantar, Vadehra Art Gallery, New Delhi and Art Musings, Mumbai in 2016, to name a few. The President of India conferred upon him the Padma Shri in 1981 and the Padma Bhushan in 2007.
