 Vasant Raghunath Amberkar was born in 1907 in Mumbai. His oil paintings, aquarelles and pastel drawings are animated by a lively vision and a fine sense of observation that capture moments filled with a magical, amorphous presence. A strong Expressionist definition of figuration and compositional values underlie his work while rasa, the Indian essence of aesthetic flavour, permeates his powerful brushstrokes and smudged colour grounds. |
